I have worked briefly in newsrooms

where we have students and seasoned reporters (both white and black) who

were not adequately prepared ( more white than black) and didn't know

the meaning of reporting. This did not stop us from helping them become

good reporters.

We must remember the Creator

did not arrange for us to come to earth as a certain profession. Instead,

we are acceded the wonderful opportunity as human beings to grow and learn.

Well, except for John Leo. He has probably never gotten a story back from

an editor with major corrections ever in his life.

I ask you not to allow half

true or untrue biased articles in your paper based on personal prejudices

to inflame. Try to keep your paper as unbiased as possible. After all,

isn't that the premise of good reporting, presenting an unbiased account

of the news?
