Letter: Obvious bias reflected

The Columbian
Published: May 17, 2014, 5:00pm

I read The Columbian opinion section daily and I am trying to put it in perspective. I ponder several scenarios as answers. This paper is either run by liberal ideologues or it is so inundated with liberal letter writers that it can’t print many conservative letters by comparison.

When I do see a conservative letter, based on the daily ration of liberal drivel, the editors might be compared to an outlaw motorcycle gang that deals in drugs and other crime but does a “toy run” once in awhile. Or, like the American Civil Liberties Union (founded by communists in my opinion), take a conservative cause once in awhile to make a good showing and make people think you do good things. Or we live in a pre-socialist (communism “lite”) environment here in Clark County.

Another possibility is that there is a concerted and organized effort to inundate the paper with liberal/socialist whiners. It appears that one must either whine about any Republican in office or participate in the effort of environmental wackos to do away with oil and coal that runs our country.

Not to mention the radical and misleading political cartoons printed. They are doing a good job keeping low-information people in the dark.
