NT is a Refreshing Voice in the Media

Dear Nica Times:

Regarding your article about the transportation strike and blackouts (NT, May 9): Nicely written.

So much of the international media are simply taking what the government pushes out.

Your voice is refreshing in that it echoes what we all know is going on.
