P.A. Daily Herald apologizes to Mayor
The Prince Albert Daily Herald has apologized to Mayor Greg Dionne, but it hasn’t stopped him from going ahead with legal action.
The apology was published on Sept.23 and reads, “The Daily Herald regrets publishing such a column and retracts the statements and negative innuendos found there regarding the mayor.”
The column also goes on to apologize to the mayor for “allowing something that unfairly reflects him in a poor light make it on the pages of (the) paper.”
“I feel very good about it,” Dionne said. “It’s one of the stronger apologies that I’ve seen the newspaper give, but it just shows that the editorial was wrong – (it) was misleading and not factual.”
