Just how many pen names does Steve Brown have? Recently I wrote a letter to your paper shaming the editor for endorsing Steve Brown again for mayor. Now three letters have referenced my letter accusing me of being against freedom of speech. One even compared it to the Soviets entering Budapest. This is really overkill and sounds just like Steve Brown.

In my letter I stated that the editor had given Steven Brown free publicity even on the front page to help him get elected in the first place. After his poor performance as mayor, the editor endorsed him again. This was a disservice to the citizens of Peachtree City.

The criticism of the editor was concerning freedom of the press, or actually abuse of the freedom the press, not freedom of speech.

In the future, it would be helpful, “Barb” and “Cee Cee,” if you actually read and understood the First Amendment before you start throwing it around like an expert.

Your editor puts his personal opinion on the front page, which is a “no no” for any decent paper. Even the left-wing Cynthia Tucker does not go that far. He should keep his editorials on the editorial page where they belong.
