RALEIGH, N.C. -

Outgoing Gov. Mike Easley is complaining about how he and his administration have been treated by newspapers in North Carolina.

The News & Observer of Raleigh reported Tuesday that Easley said in an interview published Christmas Day by the News & Record of Greensboro that newspapers often publish stories that prompt questions from radio and television reporters.

Easley's comments came in audio posted on the News & Record's Web site. The governor, whose term ends in January, particularly complained about The News & Observer.

The Raleigh newspaper has published stories about problems with the state's probation and mental health systems. N&O executive editor John Drescher said the paper was doing its job by running tough stories.
