Starring Mrs Manning
The Editor: What is it with Hazel Manning? Her face appears in just about every Ministry of Education press advertisement. Her name crops up constantly in Ministry radio ads, the most recent being the one advertising the Sesame Street Broadway Show. The listener is treated to the voices of characters like Grover, the Count and Big Bird only to have the mood spoiled by the phrase "under the distinguished patronage of senator the honourable Hazel Manning, Minister of Education." No other minister toots their own horn in the media like Mrs Manning. I don’t know if it is Mrs Manning’s idea to blitz the media with her persona, but someone should suggest she curb her appearances in future Ministry ads. R Moore Port-of-Spain
