Dear Madam Publisher,

Regarding your new editor’s

introductory opinion piece:

The Morning Gazette may not employ

Clark Kent and Lois Lane, but it is our 

major metropolitan daily and “news

you can use” or “stories of interest

to all our readers” should not set limits

for our only paper’s reporters.

Wire service feeds and canned Sunday Supplements

might “leave our staff time to talk with our readers,”

but surely they leave most of your readers

with most of the story yet to be told.

Milton Jordan lives in Georgetown with the musician Anne Elton Jordan. His most recent poetry collection is What the Rivers Gather, SFASU Press, 2020. Milton edited the anthology, No Season for Silence: Texas Poets and Pandemic, Kallisto Gaia Press, 2020.
