Letter — Objection to Front-Page Restaurant Coverage

February 1980

Historical February 1980 report or notice. Original dates, prices and contacts describe the source period; current availability has not been established.

To the editor: Before reading the December. 1979 edition of The Paper. I had thought the front page of a newspaper was supposed to report “news” in as objective a manner as possible. Your decision to use virtually the entire front page of that issue to lobby for a Bar and Restaurant, which, incidentally, 70% of the neighbors on your own block have expressed serious reservations about, is as biased an example of unnewspapership as I have had the misfortune to read. Sincerely. David Schmidt 6168 McPherson
