MHK says reporters have important role to play
Lawrie Hooper claims journalists in the Isle of Man 'don't go far enough' in some cases.
The Ramsey MHK believes there are some cases where news outlets take what the government says at face value, rather than exploring the issue further.
Mr Hooper didn't specify a particular organisation at which the accusation was levelled.
He says reporters on the Isle of Man have an important role to play in the democratic process:
'Too early to tell' what caused fire
Crews from across the Island ensured cover was available
Firefighting foam may have killed fish in Silverburn River
People advised not to enter the water for 28 days
Additional road closure for TT filming ahead of MGP qualifying

'Knives and sharp implements' left outside charity shops
