The North Shore Leader broke the Santos story and now media critics are saying that the failure of it to impact the election is somehow the fault of the public, which is letting little papers die. This doesn’t seem right.
Why aren’t the bigger papers reading the smaller papers in their regions and amplifying and crediting their reporting when they break news?

Why, when this was pointed out to the leading papers before the election (I'm looking at you, NYT), didn't they run with it? Instead they stuck with their "District 3 is going to go red, and that's that".
