,, Page 2 Letter to the Editors Dear Sirs: I have heard that you are publishing a newspaper for this community. I do not think that this community should have a local newspaper and I hope to tell you why in this letter. Number one, this community is too small to justify the publica tion of a local newspaper. Numb er two, this community does not need a newspaper because it knows what the news is without a newspaper. Number three, this community is too poor to be able to afford the publication of a newspaper, Number four, the newspapers of Brantford, Hamilton, Hagersville, and Caledonia, provide adequate coverage of local news. Number five, no newspaper published here could attain the journalistic standards set by competing newspapers. Number six, even though several issues may be printed, what guarantee have we that this newspaper will continue to be published? Number seven, the editors of the paper have no special qualifications for their positions, Number eight, a newspaper could be a good thing but the chandes are that it will do more harm than good. Number nine, this community has not had a newspaper in recent years, and therefore I submit that it does not need one. Number ten, it is impossible for a~yone to report and discuss news with 100% objectivity:~ ·", anything less than 100% cbjectivity is not the complete truth. Therefore, reporters or discussers of news and of current events, are to some degree purveyers of untruths. For these reasons, therefore, I conclude that this community ought not to have a local newspaper.
