Editors of free press must again become leaders
To the Editor. If we are to have a free press, some editors will again have to become leaders and not puppets of special interest groups. Without a free news service, the people no longer will have a free choice as to how they jive or have free expression for good government. Our system is sound, its the general direction of monopolies that have to be changed. Over control is not freedom nor will it provide an atmosphere of free enterprise. Open forum Newspapers were created to audit and record the truth not to be incriminated. Our forefathers saw the need for a free press to keep the general public from submitting to over-domination by government. Are we neglecting to meet the challenge of our free enterprise system. It seems we are allowing our standards of life to be controlled by the misuse of government agencies. Robert R. Lauer Fredericksburg.
