Re: 'Trusted journalism' [Village News, Letter, 1/21/21]

Did I miss something here or is this the most insane letter I've read in a while?

I have read over the last few months that people are canceling their subscriptions because our wonderful local newspaper is running a few more interesting articles.

The Associated Press and other left leaning newspaper articles have been reprinted in our local paper, so what the heck are you talking about when you perpetuate the lie of the sudden shift to the extreme right?

Dr. James Veltmeyer's opinion letter back in March or April was just that...an opinion, and a darn good one if you ask me! All this mask wearing is counterproductive to our health. The virus has been hijacked for political reasons, but that's another story.

The virus came from China, so it is the China virus, Wuhan to be exact.

Regardless of your ignorant, misinformed news bites, there are thousands of election fraud affidavits filed, video tape evidence and mountains of proof to back up each and every one of these claims.

Your so called Fake News channels just won't report it.

Did you even see the evidence that Antifa and BLM were involved in the peaceful demonstration like President Trump called for? I watched the real full videos...did you?

The New York Times? The FBI? You mean the same NYT that has hated President Trump since he announced his run for office? The same FBI that has had Hunter Biden's laptop for 18 months now and has not done anything with it?

The real news, like Newsmax and Fox News all showed some of the very damaging evidence with Hunter Biden's link to China and Russia plus photos of his drug abuse and lewd acts with a minor, disgusting to say the least.

All the left leaning so called "fact checkers" are nothing more than indoctrinating propaganda fake news.

You call yourself Liberals and Progressives yet are neither as you only except anyone who agrees with you. You call for tolerance but only what you tolerate.

You call for fair and honest elections, but you steal them when you can't win. You call for free speech but stifle mine.

I call people like that Communists.

As deluded as John Terrell is, I still like to read what he has to say. I think the local newspaper is for all of Fallbrook citizens and you are free to not read anything that offends you. What you are not free to do is tell me what I can read or what the newspaper can report. At least not yet, even if we are headed in that direction.

Just remember when they come for you, they will have already canceled me so I won't be around to stand for your Constitutional rights.
