Letter: Political Bias

Letter to the Editor07:00PM / Tuesday, August 09, 2022Print Story | Email Story

To the Editor:

Do you only report about Democrat candidates or am I missing your reporting on Republican candidates some how? The Berkshire Eagle is a left-favoring periodical that I've learned to simply ignore because of their bias. Please clarify my dilemma sooner than later.

I appreciate your efforts & overall coverage but it appears a political bias is showing itself.

Editor's note: iBerkshires covers all local candidates and state candidates who visit Berkshire County (and let us know they're coming!) We have been focusing on the upcoming primary, which has no local Republican races. We wrote about gubernatorial candidate Geoffry Diehl and two candidates who recently came to Pittsfield.

Icy Rain, Snow for North Berkshire Today; More Snow Forecast

10:59AM / Wednesday, February 18, 2026

The never-ending winter gave us a few warmish, clear days — a tease of spring — but that's apparently over.

The National Weather Service in Albany, N.Y., has issued a winter storm advisory to North Berkshire, Southern Vermont and the New York Capital District.

The advisory begins at noon Wednesday and runs through 4 a.m. on Thursday.

Be prepared for one to 4 inches of precipitation — a sleety rain that will turn to snow later in the day.

There were predictions of up to 6 inches but meteorologist Steve Caporizzo at ABC News10 on Wednesday morning has an updated forecast of 3 to 5 inches across North Berkshire and one to 3 inches to the south.

There's no worry on school closures or delays in Massachusetts as it's winter break. Vermont schools, however, are still in session with their break beginning next week.

The snowfall is expected to taper off early Thursday morning but the accumulation and a likely icy glaze could make both evening and morning commutes hazardous.
