Jim Albertini One sided article and photos. Not one word about5 the protest outside the main gate. Below is an email I sent to WHT writer Chelsea Jensen and photographer Laura Ruminski.

Jim Albertini Aloha Chelsea and Laura,

I was disappointed in your article and photos of “Earth Day at PTA” 4/22 article. Not one word or photo of the 30-50 people who protested outside the main gate from 8:30-10:30. You did a disservice by presenting a one sided view.

Below is a press release that was sent out before and after the event. It went to most media, including West Hawaii Today.

Jim
