The Oklahoman has decided to involve itself in the
Kim Holland /"Just The Facts America" controversy. For the record, The
Oklahoma Political News Service believes the media's role is to report the news, not make the news; but we digress.
Sue Hale, Executive Editor of
The Oklahoman, has sent a letter to JTFA's attorney Ben Ginsberg complaining about the use of The Oklahoman's nameplate and story in
this ad. Mr. Ginsberg writes:
"It is surprising to see your newspaper - with its rich history of fighting to protect the first amendment - now attempting to squelch the public's right to hear all sides of an issue of public importance by invoking its own commercial interests in its "copyrighted nameplate and story."
