the bdn says



susan young became editorial page editor in 2007 when circulation had been falling as more people started getting their news from the internet until ms young created ClickBack which helped turn the bdn into the most viewed news website in the state

listen to susan young on maine public



in 2013 the bdn did a freedom of information act request to the state of maine to release the list of people with conceal carry permits to see if our racist koch tea party backed governor was only giving conceal carry permits to white male republicans or to everyone equally

npr says the kochs created the t p 'wave'

ms young became the target of a very threatening doxing by the maine t p and the warren family chose to cancel the f o i request due to danger to the b d n staff

the warren family controlled bangor publishing group purchased the out of state conservative controlled and ailing st john valley times in 2015 and the online fiddlehead focus in 2016 as northern maine businesses struggled under the lepage economy



the maine conceal carry permit list was kept secret until the permit process was scrapped in 2015 allowing any legal gun owner to conceal carry

but first lepage blocked the freedom of access law to hide whatever shady thing they were doing with conceal carry permits



conceal carry permit lists public or secret by state

ms young was managing editor when she went deep cover in 2013

it is unclear whether the secretive list was ever released to a freedom of access petitioner










bdn editor tony ruzio tries to explain the fierce attack of the tea party fearing release of information disclosing  whether minorities, women or the disabled were discriminated against in the very subjective and secretive maine conceal carry permitting process that was eliminated in 2015





wikipedia says bdn is the most viewed maine news website growing it's online readership after cuts do to circulation reductions in 2006
