I RECENTLY found myself driving behind a bus which carried a notice advising the charitable and generous that three families in Etty Avenue were without television licences. Although this works out at less than four per cent of the properties concerned, next day it was headline news!

In contrast, 12.5 per cent of households in Welland Rise are without television licences, yet we didn't even get a mention. Is this "fair, balanced and accurate coverage"?
