I am writing to protest the editorializing you allowed to be printed in the story about the Tea Party protest in Wright Park on Saturday, August 28. You reported that 20 counter-Tea Partiers showed up, but you did NOT mention once how many Tea Party supporters showed up. There were 120, which you already knew because Mrs. Kay Lynn Smith told you.
You also said that 34 percent of Americans "correctly" believe Barack Obama is Christian. How do you know that is correct? Are you going on what he has said? What about the things he has done, like emphasizing Muslim holidays and absenting himself from Christian events, such as the National Prayer Breakfast? You have no idea whether he is Christian or not. And 34 percent is not very many people in America to be convinced he is a Christian. It is not even half. You had no business and no right to print that the 34 percent who believe he is a Christian are "correct."
While we are at it, I noticed some other editorializing you have done this week. In the Monday, August 6, paper, is page 6 an editorial page? Then why the two headlines on that page, which very much contain opinions: "2 governors, 2 crooks: What's wrong with Illinois?" and "NYC mosque debate will shape American Islam." Those two articles should be on the editorial page, where you are free to state your opinion.
Your paper is so biased, I would not even subscribe if you didn't have a monopoly on the Dodge City news.
