I created this page as a place to put the original text of the letters I write to the editors of various newspapers. I feel that what I write has on occasion been edited in a manner that changes the tone or meaning of what I wrote. Also some of my letters have not been published. I am willing to post any comments from editors with the letter to which the comments apply. I write on many topics and will no doubt add to the list. I believe in the freedom of the press. However, with freedom comes responsibility. The most important responsibilities of a free press are accuracy and truth. Democracy fails when the opinion of the individual citizen is formed from inaccurate and misleading information presented as truthful.
