The Editor, Whether you respect The Beagle or refer to it as The Bugle , The Rag or some other derogatory phrase it is democracy in action. It is filling a conspicuous gap presented by the print media. Kerry OBrien (ABC). in his recent book states. “Two notable philosophers, Edmund Burke and Thomas Jefferson , in different times and different places expressed the same sentiment on the order of importance of the parliament and the press. Both nominated the primacy of the press”. Perhaps our Councillors need a reminder. Long live The Beagle. Owen Cartledge
