Importance of a free press
To the editor:
I was inspired by the editorial in Thursday’s journal regarding the importance of the free press. Kevin Sweeney expressed so well the importance of the press in keeping our country free. Dedicated journalists risk much to keep us informed. They are the heroes of the American people, not the enemy.
The constitution guarantees us freedom of religion, speech, press, assembly and petition. Without a free press, our other constitutional guarantees would soon erode.
Thanks to all journalists that daily keep us informed.
