The Post & Courier replies
Dear Mr. Archibald,
Thank you for your message. I think you make a good point. At first, I
assumed that the desk used such a brief story because The Post and Courier
had published extensive accounts beforehand. I checked and found that we
have, of course, addressed the issue, but not to the extent that we could
assume readers knew the whole story. I will say, however, that this vote by
the legislature does not constitute a ban. It is just one step in a process.
I expect that, when the matter is ultimately resolved, The Post and Courier
will devote more space to the issue.
It is always helpful to hear from you.
