You love the bush and respect Alaska Native culture more than any other opinion leader. But next time you visit a village, sit down with the family and go over their finances. What you will discover is how important the entire check for every family member is to their ability to survive and prosper. Perhaps you have spent too much time with a different class of Alaska native who now views the PFD through corporate eyes. They deserve all that they have earned. But they have left the village and its economic reality behind. Since GCI seeks a larger and larger stake in the media market and has run a propaganda campaign in favor of a raid on the fund, I trust your personal editorial opinion will not impact or slant your coverage.
