Advertiser editor-at CommunityMedia Cou ncil large George Chaplin ex pressed his displeasure at the Editedby Julia Steele idea of the study, but he remained on the council. Why was the study con ducted? Knebel says over the last two or three years, the council has intermittently hosted speakers who have severely criticized the local papers. In addition, Knebel says, "There was a feeling among several on the council that the Honolulu papers were not big-time papers, but they were making a lot of money." So the group decided to see if industrypr ofessionalsand the community shared their con cernsand criticisms. After several months of study, the council emerged with hundreds of pages of analysis and 15 specific rec ommendations for changes in the city's two daily papers. They are:
