As it stands the views expressed by the paper are to the far left. The headlines that run in the paper show your liberal bias. The news you refuse to run or ignore is an attempt by the paper to censor viewpoints that do not agree with your own. One of the problems with the Telegraph and most of the mainsteam media is that liberals do not see themselves as liberals. Most of the Telegraphs views on same sex marriages, transgender freaks, abortion, taxes and spending would have been correctly viewed as extreme by the editors of the paper just a generation ago. I believe part of the reason the paper has stayed in business is that most residents in the Nashua area want to see what is happening locally. It is not that the paper reflects the values of most of the community. Their is a vaccum in New Hampshire of news outlets that are balanced. In the good old days we had William Loeb,Al Rock and broadcasters like Mr Bronstein on WOTW around to hold your feet to the fire. Alas now their is little to no accountabiltiy in the printed and local talk media. Recently you ran a story about one of Hillarys aides being arrested the night before the primary after driving drunk thru Nashua and speeding. Any ordinary citizen might have had the news flashed the next day. Someone made the decision to censor the news and withhold the story to protect the democrats for a few days. This should have been a front page story that ran right away regardless of the impact on the primary. The Telegraph carrys water for the democrats constantly and trys to mold the public against policys it does not like. Yes there are some of us who can see the fire thru the smoke.</p>KevinMon, 21 Jan 2008 04:18:17 -0000
