Country firefighters in WA are considering quitting over battles with bureaucracy and a funding rejection, according to a volunteer association.
I'm not a fan of articles like this. There's so little detail on why the proposal was knocked back. It's impossible to know, by the end of the article, whether it was a good or poor action by the committee.
No idea on this article, but yeah I swear 90% of local news I read is so clearly slanted in a way as to evoke a specific response, usually obvious ones (pro business, anti homeless, anti city, copaganda). It's frustrating to be denied the actual story
I don't even know if theres an agenda for some of this stuff. I reckon the journo has been given two short sentences from each side and told to make 500 words or whatever
I always think about cafes that have papers out for free and they're obviously always going to be that. Never see our local trot rags getting coffee in the morning
