Dear Editor,
Recently, The Dispatch printed a column by Lisa Pampuch, a
member of the editorial board. She implied that I don’t know the
difference between speculation and a lie, and she proposed the
question to the general public,
”
Shouldn’t a candidate know the difference?
”
She selected a definition that best fits her cause.
Dear Editor,
Recently, The Dispatch printed a column by Lisa Pampuch, a member of the editorial board. She implied that I don’t know the difference between speculation and a lie, and she proposed the question to the general public, “Shouldn’t a candidate know the difference?” She selected a definition that best fits her cause. The real definition is much bigger than what she tried to create.
What Ms. Pampuch failed to recognize or understand is, the letter I wrote was not intended to be printed; but, written as a reprimand to the editor for failure to print the truth, “the whole truth.”
It is my belief that the newspaper has a duty and responsibility to the general public to report the truth, “instead of making up fictitious news.” Ms. Pampuch very conveniently overlooked this concept.”
In response to Ms. Pampuch superficial and misleading question: It is my belief that a candidate, “in order to better serve and protect the people/taxpayers,” needs to have a deeper intellectual ability and have the capacity to recognize the truth – or a lie – should that lie be hidden deep inside documentation that’s intended to deceive or mislead the public.
The election is soon: Don’t let The Dispatch or Lisa Pampuch make your decision. Be informed and know the facts.
If you don’t know the facts, then let history be your guide. If you are happy with history then let your vote support the status quo; if you are not satisfied, then let your vote show a support for change.
Manly R. Willis, Gilroy
