My letter to Time

[LevelB]

I was reading Eschaton today, and he pointed out yet another crappy column by Joe Klein. I have subscribed to Time for years, and Eschaton is right: The columns in Time have been steadily tilting to the right. Anyway, why should I pay to read that crap when I can get TalkRadio for nothing (there is real value for money there).

So I wrote the following:

To the editor

Subject: One sided columnists

I have been a subscriber to Time for many years.

I have noticed a distinctly rightward tilt from the columnists Time has published in the last few years. I am a Democrat. If Time cannot, or is unable, to hire some of the many talented liberal columnists that are writing elsewhere, I will let my subscription lapse and move on.

And just so we are clear, Joe Klein does not cut it.

Thank you for your attention.

Anyway, my two cents. I never wrote a letter to an editor before (highly introverted engineer)

1. Good job.

Hit 'em where it hurts: in the wallet.

2. Get Harpers and/or the Nation

much more informative and fewer inane topics.

3. Thanks.

Maybe I will just switch. I really like to follow the news and I appreciated the column (article?) by General Newbold, but why the lousy columns?
