Oklahoman of old ...letter to editor

I worked for Mr. EK Gaylord and his son Edward Gaylord and they were good and honorable tho pragmatic newspapermen. They stood for morality and truth and were responsible stewards of news, reporting all sides of most issues. The Gaylords have done great and admirable things for our state with little abuse of the power they hold until now.
During the primary election I watched as the Daily Oklahoman failed in its duty to inform the public that one of the candidates for our House of Representatives was a homosexual activist under the tutelage of out of state radical sexuality organizations . Several times I emailed copies of the story of his support and training by these gay political alliances easily obtainable on the web. The candidate won by 1% and an informed readership of our "state newspaper" would have undoubtedly affected his candidacy in the negative. The story of his victory then became front page news. The city editorship at the Daily Oklahoman obviously refused to publish the truth and we are shackled in our state house with a change agent for obscene sexuality.
Mr. Editor...as readers we have choices and your believability rises or falls on our support. You must fire the editors responsible for this travesty and apologize to the good and moral citizenship to reclaim that believability.
