Stop Media's Brainwashing of Our Civilization
RECEIVED Tue., Feb. 7, 2006
Dear Louis and staff,
It's so sad to see how many of us "take issue" with Chronicle covers instead of gratefully recognizing you as voices in the dark – sometimes loud, obnoxious, and/or "obscene" – trying to steer our attention to the real perversions and obscenities in our society: the self-serving (religious) self-righteousness of men and women in power at the expense of the vast majority of their constituents, the destructive greediness of corporations, and the brainwashing of our civilization by the media.
Thank you – Louis, Michael Ventura, Jim Hightower, Molly Ivins, and other good folks for challenging and inspiring my thinking.
