Refreshing to see that integrity still trumps advertising dollars

Editor: The back page story entitled “Brewery contravenes ‘No bottle’ policy” in last week’s issue refers.

It is not for me to surmise that some may have been afraid to bite the hand that feeds them, but clearly SEARCHLIGHT has proven that it brings news that I can trust.

It is refreshing to see that integrity still trumps advertising dollars.

Keep up the good work!
