Was Mayor Bergson's Drunk driving a top story of 2005.



Here is some ones opion on our Drunk mayor making it as the top story of the year. The fact is he is wrong this needed to be there and it was a big northland story. One if not the top the mayor who still has not been completely truthful with the citizens on his problem.


Bergson's arrest wasn't worthy of top-story list was shocked the Duluth News Tribune chose for its top story of 2005 Herb Bergson's drunken-driving arrest ("Turning the page: 2005," Jan. 1).
While there was no excuse for Bergson's mistake, and while he should be held accountable, this is hardly the largest news story of 2005.
Let's hope you can come up with something better in 2006. If not, give me a call.
Might I suggest some remedial journalism classes for those who came up with Bergson as the story of the year. The choice not only was a poor reflection on your paper and the your staff's obvious short attention span, it was a poor reflection on the Northland.
I wouldn't have ranked that story in the top 25.
