To the editor:
Last week, I wrote a letter to the editor (Feb. 19, page 9, headlined Doucette unhappy with reporting) in regards to media publishing comments that were untrue and incorrect.
I may have inadvertently implied that the Free Press was part of this poor reporting.
This was not the case and I apologize.
The Free Press has always done great work in reporting the story with input from both sides. It was never my intention to point fingers at the Free Press or Black Press in general.
The article I referred to in my letter was posted on HQCariboo.com and another publication that copied the article that HQ posted.
I was shocked that HQ Cariboo didn’t even try to contact me in regards to the accusations made by [Tsihqot’in National Government Chief] Joe Alphonse and I didn’t want to accuse them directly in my letter.
Again, my apology to all at the Free Press.
