Criticism
Started in 2004, Leisure Connection Watch is a consumer website featuring reports that question the performance of Leisure Connection Ltd. LCW relies mainly on items from local papers, the Audit Commission and council reports. It also uses the Freedom of Information Act 2000 to find out more about Leisure Connection's performance and how councils are monitoring and managing this. Since February 2006 LCW produced a summary of referenced findings called "The Leisure Connection Dossier."

Famous quotes containing the word criticism:
“The aim of all commentary on art now should be to make works of art—and, by analogy, our own experience—more, rather than less, real to us. The function of criticism should be to show how it is what it is, even that it is what it is, rather than to show what it means.”
—Susan Sontag (b. 1933)
“A bad short story or novel or poem leaves one comparatively calm because it does not exist, unless it gets a fake prestige through being mistaken for good work. It is essentially negative, it is something that has not come through. But over bad criticism one has a sense of real calamity.”
—Rebecca West (1892–1983)
“I hold with the old-fashioned criticism that Browning is not really a poet, that he has all the gifts but the one needful and the pearls without the string; rather one should say raw nuggets and rough diamonds.”
—Gerard Manley Hopkins (1844–1889)
