<DIV>Dear Nathan Alford,<BR><BR>When I opened the D.N. this morning and saw
(once again) an op ed <BR>piece written by Ed Iverson, New St. Andrews
College librarian, I realized that it was time to cancel my subscription to
your newspaper. </DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>I appreciate the journalistic obligation of the Daily News to include
conservative perspectives on local, national and international
issues. Latah County is fortunate to have a number of
intelligent, well-informed conservatives who could ably fill this role;
residents with substantial knowledge of the region, long,
well-documented records of community service, and proven literary
skills. Sadly, you have deliberately overlooked many eminently
suitable candidates in order to provide a public platform for a
know-nothing newcomer who hectors, lectures, and attempts
to proselytize on behalf of Douglas J. Wilson. The
selection of Ed Iverson as a regular columnist demonstrates a critical
lapse of judgment on your part and a profound failure of imagination
and sensitivity to local issues on the part of your editorial
staff. It is apparent that the DN editors do not
serve you, or your newspaper well, Nathan. </DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>A newspaper and its editorial board need not endorse or even
embrace</DIV>
<DIV>a liberal, progressive agenda to please me. However, I do expect
that at least a half-hearted, semi-professional attempt will be
made to provide balance on the editorial page. It baffles and
repulses me that you have chosen (for what ever reason) to employ
a devotee of Doug Wilson as a regular columnist. What in
the world, or, perhaps I should ask who in the world, persuaded you
that Ed Iverson was an appropriate or worthy
choice? </DIV>
<DIV><BR>Fortunately, your father has not completely capitulated to the
charmless persuasion of Doug Wilson, Roy Atwood, much less Ed
Iverson. Subsequently, I will rely on the Lewiston Tribune
for Moscow news. </DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>Sincerely,</DIV>
<DIV>Rose Huskey<BR><BR></DIV>
