Denton Aims Past Media Heat In Prolonged Senate Fight
Senator Jeremiah Denton, Alabama Republican, vented frustration at liberal press bias and the political press glare as he enters his third year in the Senate. He outlines notable subcommittee work on security and terrorism, immigration rights for Amerasian children, and opposition to the National Peace Day proposal, while noting limited coverage of his inquiries into the pope’s shooting and Cuban drug smuggling. He hopes to balance work with family and personal respite at sea, seeking a six-year term devoted to service and results.
