Better More Voices Than Fewer

RECEIVED Wed., Feb. 27, 2013

Dear Editor,
    I read the comment last week from a reader labeling Infowars as extremist crap [“Postmarks,” Feb. 22]. The reader encouraged the idea of going to businesses where Infowars is distributed and letting them know how divisive this Alex Jones publication is. This is just offensive to me. I tend to lean more conservative and feel the same about the Chronicle as an extremist liberal rag at times. But … I love the Chronicle and am not compelled to let a business get my two-bit opinion. I enjoy the liberal/conservative balance these two papers offer in Austin. I want to pick up both papers. Infowars is just getting started, but still interesting with some good articles. Just like Alex Jones and his national TV interviews, it needs some work and time to develop, and it should. I urge some of you extreme Kool-Aid drinkers of all things Obama to pick it up and read it sometimes. At the very least, you will know where to get your survival kit while you watch this country go down the tubes thanks to the clowns in Washington – located on both sides of the aisle.
