in response to BillStuart1:

Would someone please explain to me.

Why those who claim to be great Americans.
And who claim they love this country.

Want to alter or even take away one of our greatest rights.

Freedom of the press.....
Freedom to express thoughts...

Mr. Lenard.

With all due respect.
If you are this unhappy with the message from Scripps.

Stop buying their product.

See in a free society.

If noone reads "columnists Eve Samples and Anthony Westbury and others, including reporter Jonathan Mattise.....

And subscriptions and page hits go down.

Scripps finds someone else to employ.

Scipps is a business.

Revenues rule.

Isn't that a better way to deal with your unhappiness.

Then wanting to take basic rights away from your fellow citizens.

Mr.Lenard, did it ever occur to you that the reason Ms. Samples gets top placement in the paper and on the site is that she drives business.

For Scripps, who cares if the comments are good or bad.

It's Business!

And by you commenting, you even grow her business!

But anyway, Mr. Lenard, I hope you will reconsider and not want to MY RIGHTS away, because you are unhappy with the message.

You know, follow the tenets that make our country great!

I don't think Mr. Lenard wants to take away freedom of press or freedom of opinion. He just wants a newspaper to report without bias. I agree with him that opinions of the writer need to go into a section for opinions and not the front page.

By the way, isn't Mr. Lenard just exercising his right to free speach? The right that you are trying to defend?
