Publishing letters to the editor in reponse to editorials is a tradition of every major newspaper and is not a good indicator of a paper's evenhandedness
Arguing about whether or not a paper is biased is probably pointless....the issue is too subjective and neither of us is going to do the research necessary to really back up our claim. The more important point involves the use of an editorial as the only source to discredit the civil right's commission's report. Character assassinating a commision member does not equal negating the truth of the findings.
