DEAR EDITOR:

I have been reading the newly-minted Vindicator edition of the Tribune Chronicle. You have a blatantly biased agenda which is pro-Republican, pro-commerce, anti-environment, anti-democracy. You will not push these anti-democratic biases on me.

Your editorial entitled “Fossil energy research should receive funding” pushed me over the edge. How dare you influence your readership to think the poor fossil fuel industry lacks resources to conduct research. Why don’t you look up the volumes of peer-reviewed publications which have uncovered the deep harms this industry has caused by destroying the health of humans, not to mention the environmental degradation?

There are those who accused the previous Youngstown Vindicator of biased reporting, but they take a back seat to your uneducated agenda.
