Letter to the editor: Councillor wearing a police vest should not have been a news story

City Coun. Kyle Sampson was the focus of a recent article and editorial about his decision to wear a police vest during an RCMP ride-along and share a photo of him in it on Facebook.

Regarding Coun. Kyle Sampson’s ride-along saga, I find it a waste of newspaper and ink to use two pages of tripe just to fulfill The Citizen’s mandate of printing the quota of pages per issue.

Granted that he should not have been issued with that particular vest, do the readers care about that faux pas or is The Citizen now taking on the journalistic responsibilities of a gossip tabloid?

Just my opinion!
