Why does the ADN continually gloss over the 800lb gorilla in the room with these articles?  Tax payers are being asked to fork over tens of millions of dollars ostensibly for the benefit of a small number citizens who have chosen to live in an isolated area of Alaska.  If proponents of the road are truly concerned about the residents of King Cove, then why aren't they as equally concerned about the other isolated pockets of humanity throughout Alaska?  And the efforts are being led by a political party that professes to believe in minimizing the spending of tax dollars on citizens.  Alarm bells should be going off for any concerned citizen, let alone journalists who should know better.
