These 1969 edits were nothing.

Look at editorials that ran in the 1920s, and earlier. The people who ran the joint had a serious thing about Asian immigration. I saw a bunch that warned against the Yellow peril.

And if the Journal Star had to set aside print space to apologize for stupid editorials, they’d be booked solid through 2017 ….

But yeah, you would think that a newspaper that has the space to write editorials about Father’s Day would have time for this.

And I’ve bumped heads with Lawrence J. Maushard before. Major League jerk.

Trust me, CJ, women can hold a grudge a hell of a lot longer.
I wonder if Iranians will ‘hold a grudge’ and demand that the state-owned media apologize for it’s treatment of Neda’s story forty years from now.

They want the Journal Star to apologize for an editorial that ran in 1969? Forty years ago? Wow. Now that’s what I call “holding a grudge.”
