One gutsy editor
The Seattle Times: Nation & World: Newspaper in Crawford backs Kerry, faults Bush on deficit, Iraq
Can you imagine being the editor of a small newspaper in Crawford, Texas, and endorsing John Kerry. This guy has probably signed his own death warrant - or rather, that of his paper. But he's serious and his arguments are solid - and from other storie sont he subject the town is now up in arms against him. Oh - and he endorsed Bush in 2000 - but thinks he didn;t live up to his promises.
In Texas, of course, where they believe so strongly in freedom of speech and other American values, the initial reaction of the merchants on Main Street was to cancel subscriptions and yank their advertising. Can't carry this freedom of speech thing too far, you know.
