More than 300 newspapers join Globe effort on freedom of the press editorials
By Jaclyn Reiss Globe Staff August 14, 2018
More than 300 news publications across the United States have committed to a Boston Globe-coordinated effort to run editorials Thursday promoting the freedom of the press, in light of President Trumps frequent attacks on the media.
Some of the most respected and widely circulated newspapers in the country have committed to taking a stand in their editorial pages, including The New York Times, The Dallas Morning News, The Denver Post, The Philadelphia Inquirer, and the Chicago Sun-Times. The list ranges from large metropolitan dailies to small weekly papers with circulations as low as 4,000.

Not surprisingly, my local ultra-right wing, total waste of good pulp is not on that list.

I actually thought there was a chance that AJC would participate. Very disappointed.
