Housing Minister Criticizes Media for Lack of Charity Coverage

Housing Minister Phillip Edward Alexander has expressed his dissatisfaction on social media regarding the lack of media coverage for a charity initiative he was involved in. The initiative included a hamper drive, a large toy drive, and the distribution of hundreds of meals. It has not been confirmed if media houses were officially invited or informed about this event. Media coverage is usually dependent on accessibility, communication, and effective working relationships. Alexander’s remarks were made in the wake of a similar charitable event involving Keith Scotland, which had received considerable attention. It seems this comparison has only fueled Alexander’s disappointment. His well-documented history of public criticism of the media might explain the lack of coverage.
