Editor,

He has to read through submissions from Republicans still trying to promote the Big Lie about who won the 2020 election and blaming Democrats for every real and imagined wrong — and also from liberal Democrats trying to blunt the misrepresentations with the truth as they see it. Don’t envy his job. Much prefer comments about local issues, which is what a local paper is for.

I think the Daily Journal performs an invaluable service of providing a "public square" for discussing important issues of the day. How can one vote intelligently if they're not informed?

Jon Mays does a great job as Editor in Chief. He directs an accomplished staff of writers, and they deliver thorough coverage of important local topics and events. We are lucky to have Jon serving our broader community.

Amen to that.

Well said, Ray and Ed. If Marcyl or anyone else is bothered by certain aspects of the DJ, they can always opt to not read those sections that don’t strike their fancy. Better yet, I’d recommend Marcyl obtain a DJ subscription and make their voice heard on local issues, or any issue. The more the merrier.
