I'm not going to criticise individual local journalists, as I think the fact that they're so widely spread, puts them in a difficult situation, with regards to investing time spent on uncovering scoops.
However I do think ignoring the information in this thread, which could have blown holes in a nationally and internationally reported story, was a missed oportunity, for someone to make their mark in what's become a very hard industry to work in.
