In a normal place, news media would not use this sort of commentary from a politician about his own caucus, well not unless it was to ridicule the comment and the politician who issued the statement.
Then again, they don’t call this particular media outlet voice of the cabinet minister for nothing:
Terra Nova MHA Sandy Collins says he's extremely pleased to see such a smooth transition of power after Danny Williams announced he was stepping down earlier this month. Collins says it could have been a difficult time for the party and government, but it went smoothly much to the credit of Premier Kathy Dunderdale.
Hey Gerry!
Ed Murrow called.
He said he wants his awards back.
Either that or put a disclaimer that any resemblance between this sort of shite and journalism is purely coincidental.
