Our local Sunday News was inundated with LTTE against the bailout. |

They decided not to publish any of them. When faced with a "pitchfork moment", they ignored the shouts of protest and locked the doors. Is this is how a free press operates?

1. Did they say anything at all? |
|
Maby a notice that there had been so many letters they hadn't been able to read them all yet, or something like that?

I was told my letter would be published. I was also told they had so many they were having a difficult time picking out those to publish. Seems to me, a responsible press would have put two extra pages in the paper. After all, our country is only going bankrupt once.

2. How do you know that they were inundated? |
|
Just curious. In any case, it seems like they should have published at least a few representative examples...
