Islanders stand against tall bridge — Sarasota Herald-Tribune

Island residents back high-rise AMI Bridge — Bradenton Herald

That’s right, folks. Somebody got it wrong, didn’t they?

In this case, I’d say the Bradenton Herald is the one that got the story right. Their piece included hard numbers from the Florida DOT survey about Anna Maria Island bridge preferences, while the Herald-Tribune’s story only quoted a few people who were apparently part of a group that opposes a high, fixed-span bridge between the island and the mainland.

Good job, Herald reporter Duane Marsteller — and the editors who passed on the piece before publication, too!
