Letters to the Editor

Some ideas for improvement

To the editor: I am writing just from my own personal opinion of views about the city in general. Mainly my concern is all the businesses and homes being demolished. Which is a good thing — it’s an issue that should have been dealt with for a long time. This at one time was a cute little ...

Johnson issues response to story

To the editor: The recent sensationalized “news report” detailing cherry-picked bits and pieces of a meritless and flawed lawsuit filed against the Ohio Republican Party and its officers may have left readers with the inaccurate impression that false accusations are factual, and that fake ...

Dave Johnson’s character should not be questioned

To the editor: I am writing in response to the one-sided scurrilous attack against Ohio Republican Party Treasurer Dave Johnson that appeared in your papers. While this is not the forum to discuss ongoing litigation, the attack on Dave Johnson’s character is unwarranted, unprofessional, ...

Lack of Ukraine awareness by American citizens is shocking

Refuting Witcover column

To the Editor: Jules Witcover does have a way to upset me. In my favorite newspaper, the Morning Journal, Feb. 18 issue, Mr. Witcover states, “Did Russia just blink on Ukraine threat?” Implying that Biden stopped Russia’s potential invasion of Ukraine. How does the Biden administration ...

Response to Lisbon mayor’s revitalization project plan

To the Editor: In the January 22-23 paper was a guest column by (Lisbon) Mayor Peter Wilson.  First of all, when the revitalization project began it was to repair buildings and move new businesses into the open spaces, but Mayor Peter Wilson has used this to harass businesses not in ...

Continued failings of politicians, media

To the Editor: Just a brief letter to point out the continued failings of our politicians and the media. I walked into the TV room on Feb. 17 and caught the tail end of a political spokesperson stating that Russia, if sanctioned, will institute a cyber attack on the USA. Why would you even ...
