The Newsday's Clint Chan Tack has a very strong first paragraph for his lead story on government's acquisition of the Hilton Tobago.
(http://newsday.co.tt/news/0,75830.html). His story is titled 'Govt buys Tobago Hilton'.
"GOVERNMENT yesterday announced that it will buy out the stakes held by private sector investors in the $214 million (US$34 million) Tobago Hilton to prevent the Tobago economy from collapse."
Compare that with Express reporter Juhel Browne's first paragraph; his story is titled 'Govt injects $45m in Hilton Tobago...to fix the roof'.
(http://www.trinidadexpress.com/index.pl/article_news?id=161299759)
"Hilton Tobago, the largest and one of the newer hotels in Tobago, is in need of urgent repairs and government has agreed to immediately inject $45 million to fix the roof."
And here's the take of the Guardian's Siewdath Persad, who tried to grill Trade Minister Dr Keith Rowley on the issue during Thursday's post-cabinet news conference.
His story is titled 'Hilton Tobago to get $45m facelift' (http://guardian.co.tt/news5.html).
"Eight years after its gala opening, the Hilton Tobago has deteriorated to such an extent that it needs a significant injection of state funds to save it from further decay."
