I was in the process of writing a letter to you when the paper with the Shaw article was delivered. I wanted to tell you how irresponsible your paper is in regard to the black community. Any newspaper that exercised an un-American policy of censorship in totally ignoring the Louis Farrakhan speech, which attracted 30,000-35,000 people, and then spent many editorial lines on a trite story about black reparations needs to examine its editorial policy and its lack of journalistic fairness.
