In this episode of "Navel Gazing: The Valley Indy Podcast," reporter Eugene Driscoll gives a brief update on a plan presented to the Derby Planning and Zoning Commission to make changes at The Hops Company, a popular beer garden on Derby's east side.
Then Chris Bowen of Seymour joins by telephone to argue with the Valley Indy reporters about last week's decision made by hundreds of newspaper editorial boards all over the U.S. to explain why a free press isn't an "enemy of the people."
Bowen also touches upon a recent meeting of the CT Commuter Rail Council, and answers whether he thought The Valley Indy story on the meeting was too negative.
