But as for Pierce, it’s sad he feels so threatened by modern progressiveness. In response to his old charge of “liberal bias” in journalism, I ask where he draws his perspective from. Obviously, if you are so far to the right in your views you feel threatened by any change, you will see everything around you as too progressive. I do notice the Herald publishes Pierce’s letters, regardless of how out of touch they are. So what is the problem? Surely, Pierce gets enough right-wing lies from his other sources, so why not let the Herald offer you another perspective for a change?
