The editorial was written by one person and published by one or two more. I know a couple of workers at the Today, (which probably employs about 10 people) who are upset with it. But they want to keep their jobs of course, what would speaking up accomplish other than to put them out of a job.
To take this editorial as the view of the population of the island is being just as ignorant as the s**theads that did the beating. It's a good thing that it's been exposed, by this site i might add, although no one seems to acknowledge it.

I know the Today is garbage, the only reason we here at SXM PE get a copy is to expose it.
