I'm the guilty party responsible for the story in question.
If I got some sort of technicality wrong then I apologise, but the simple fact is, and you'll have to excuse my arrogance here, you will not find a better balanced version of this story in any other paper.
Every single piece I have written about the Coventry Airport saga has been straight down the line, and my paper has been the only one to publish any kind of direct debate between the airport management and the protest lobby.
To suggest I have "not bothered" to do any research is below the belt.
I would love to see anyone here write over 30 stories a week without making one slight error...whilst earning barely £4.50 per hour!
