Grafton Sentinel Letter on Press Responsibility and Leftist Labels
Brady C. Carrothers criticizes calls to condemn Dr. Graham of North Carolina as an extreme leftist. He argues the term is a flexible label used to discredit opponents, warns against generalizations by editors, and urges careful scrutiny of press claims about responsibility. He also questions the idea that the public must read every sensational item and signs his name to print the letter.
