…Guyana Times obviously aligned to them – Corbin PNCR Leader Robert CorbinThe Government is discriminating in the distribution of advertisement to a company (Guyana Times) that is obviously aligned to them.This is according to Leader of the Peoples National Congress Reform (PNCR) Robert Corbin who was commenting on the questionable distribution of Government advertisements over the recent five months.Stabroek News (SN) in a six-month analysis of the government advertisements placed in the daily newspaper, found that while the allocations of advertisements to Kaieteur News (KN) plummeted to some extent advertisements allocated to Guyana Times (GT) escalated to the point that up to last month it was getting more than Kaieteur News despite the fact that its circulation is negligible.“SN has analysed the distribution of Government Information Agency (GINA) advertisements between April and September this year.
