The Jamaican media against Air Jamaica?

There is no doubt in my mind that the Jamaican media has had its eyes set on Air Jamaica since the JLP won elections last year. I myself have sent a number of letters, both outlining reasons privatization make sense, as well as praising the service I received on my most recent flight 2 weeks ago.

Without fail, my letters that could be used against Air Jamaica have consistently been published while the more positive ones languish in an editors inbox, never to see the light of day in the mainstream media.

The most recent article was certainly surprising and I am shocked at the revelation - we taxpayers certainly need to know about these failings - but I still wish the media would throw in some good stories as well.

The article was titled $250 m to park - Air Jamaica plane accumulates fees in France

Am I the only person who thinks that the media is purposely focusing on negative stories related in Air Jamaica?
