Dear Editor, Fuck you! The many reasons ... – For putting dead cats on your cover [“What Happened to the No-Kill Millennium?,” News, Nov. 18]! That's not "edgy" or "in-your-face" journalism, that's just shit, which echoes what you are: shit. – For your shitty music coverage! Does being a white boy blues or rockabilly or generic mall punk band merit any artistic validity or coverage? We're not all sheep! Some of us have taste. - For promoting the mediocre and mundane and ignoring what is really worth covering. - For being whores to whomever gives you money and blindly supporting them, and saying to hell with anything else, and for all the other reasons I have written you hate letters. Which I won't relist, the only redeeming factor about the Chronicle is that you print these. Die.
I really hate you, Jason Christian
[Editor's Note: Jason, thanks for your thoughtful critique and well-reasoned objections. It's the kind of response that makes all the work involved in putting out this publication worthwhile.]
