WHO WILL ACHIEVE STARK COUNTY POLITICAL REPORT "STARDOM" THIS CHRISTMAS?




 COMING TUESDAY!

6TH ANNUAL "LUMP OF COAL AWARD"

YOU CAN PARTICIPATE

On December 25th of 2008 the Stark County Report initiated a "Lump of Coal Award in honor of former Repository Ohio Statehouse reporter Paul Kostyu.

This year will be the sixth year that the SCPR has awarded a "Lump of Coal" Award to a deserving Stark County public official or public figure.

The "Lump of Coal" Award complements The Report retinue of recognitions of Stark's public officials/figures which also include an annual Thanksgiving Award and SCPR suggested New Years Resolutions that various Stark political personalities ought to - in the estimate of The Report - be making.

Although the SCPR already has a person in mind to receive the 2013 6th Annual "Lump of Coal" Award, The Report is open to consider your nominee.

E-mail your choice and the reasons for your selection The Report.

Kostyu was known to single out state representatives and senators who embarrassed themselves during their terms in office as meriting a "bah-humbug-esque" award some time during the Christmas season.

Kostyu spent some eight (8) years in the employ of The Repository/Gatehouse before being "unceremoniously" (in the opinion of the SCPR) dumped by the folks at 500 Market Avenue, South.

In honor of Kostyu's work at the Statehouse, the SCPR has picked up on his awarding of a "lump of coal" idea.

His departure created a Repository void on political/government reporting and editorializing that the SCPR seized upon with great success.

A BIG  SCPR thank you! to the "bigs" running The Repository.

A VERY, VERY "MERRY CHRISTMAS" to the chiefs at The Rep.

Paul Kostyu has returned to academia (where he started his employment some 25 years ago) as shown in his "Linked In" biography.
