I read the Letters to the Editor now like any typical fan of the National Enquirer does. With disgust, shock and disbelief. What I think surprises me the most is the letters that the News Journal posts. I have seen letters that mock the President with flat out lies. I have seen letters that suggest taxing makeup like cigarette’s are taxed. I really don’t understand what the benefit to the paper is to publish some of the hateful, uneducated and uniformed letters. Here is the latest letter they published:
Bleeding-heart paper should publish all salaries
April 5, 2009
If The News Journal is going to print salaries of all state employees’ positions, when will they post how much people are getting for state assistance? They have posted salaries in the past of teachers and other state employees who work overtime.How about printing the names of everyone on welfare, food stamps and Medicaid? That way, all the paying citizens of Delaware know who is getting our tax money to help support them. Better yet, the bleeding-heart liberal newspaper might as well just print everyone’s salary who lives in Delaware.
