After contacting him regarding this article, Alex Munter has informed me that there are some factual errors in this article. He and I will be reviewing it, and I will post a photo of him, likely sometime this week. - RealGrouchy 03:16, 18 December 2005 (UTC)

[edit] "He is organizing to run for Ottawa mayor in 2006."

I asked Mr. Munter if he could confirm, deny, or clarify this statement. While he did none, he acknowledged the inherent ambiguity of the statement's meaning. --RealGrouchy 17:37, 9 February 2006 (UTC)

[edit] NPOV

I put a NPOV tag on the last section, because the way it is phrased seems to read like a promotional campaign flier. Dan Carkner 18:23, 26 October 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Selling of the Kanata Kourier

The article mentions twice that he sold it, and to different companies in each occurence. Which one was it? -- Earl Andrew - talk 22:39, 3 November 2006 (UTC)

He sold it to Runge. Sun Media didn't exist at the time that Munter sold the paper. Skeezix1000 21:22, 6 November 2006 (UTC)

In fact, just to clarify, Runge was eventually sold to Torstar. So, I'm really confused where the Sun Media reference came from.Skeezix1000 21:30, 6 November 2006 (UTC)

The article says that he sold the paper to focus on his studies, but an August 16, 1989 Citizen article says that he sold it because of competition from the Kanata standard. It also says that he stayed on as publisher, nixing the school argument. I have updated the article and added reference to the Citizen article. --RealGrouchy 06:12, 13 November 2006 (UTC)

[edit] "Stalin" Comment

Someone deleted the "Stalin" comment because it wasn't referenced (yeah, like much else in the article is). When I viewed the article with Munter on 23 December 2005 (the same day I took the second photo in the article), he did not point that out as one of the innacuracies in the article. Nevertheless, I have added a reference, which I retrieved using online resources available to members of the Ottawa Public Library. --RealGrouchy 06:12, 13 November 2006 (UTC)
