censorship

My local newspaper, the Dominion Post, who has consistently published my letters for the last 3 years, has silently suppressed my last two letters regarding the Muslim treatment of women, and, in particular, in reference to The Islamic Center of Morgantown.

This institution's construction is not inviting, and the Muslims keep a tight control over the local media. The reporter who did a story on Ramadan was very submissive about his limited access when I spoke to him. The media should cherish the First Amendment while they have it.
