Recently a impaired driver contacted Wingham Free Press in the hopes
of getting his/her name removed from the internet. While WFP
may have been the first to start publishing the names of impaired
drivers, we are not the only ones that do so now. A quick
search quickly revealed this impaired driver is listed on several
News sites that are not affiliated with WFP. WFP has been
rumored to have removed or redacted Police Press releases in
exceptional cases based on compassion, a rumor we deny. To
date, no legal challenge has ever held up against WFP. Even
the disgruntled impaired driver agrees what we are doing is legal,
as well as her/his police sources.
Since this request was denied, the person has resorted to harassing
anyone and any business he/she believes may be remotely associated
with WFP. This is an attempt to shut WFP down by scaring away
our advertisers. This will not work, as we do not charge for
advertising and run on a zero budget. Even if all the
