You're either with us, or you're with the nurses
No, it's not a headline out of the comms shop. Not even the comms shop would be so black-and-white-and-crass as to claim that the nurses are campaigning "against N.L."... would they?
This is at least the second time. Two weeks ago they ran a similar headline when "NL" began running an ad campaign. I have no idea if it's a techie or a reporter who composes the headlines for these pieces, but whoever's to blame, it's shoddy journalism. Like the used to say in the last election, if you're not voting for Danny, you're voting against Newfoundland. A shame that our public broadcaster now follows the same logic.
They've got needles and they're not afraid to use them.
