Words mean things
I found it an interesting juxtaposition on the cover of your Saturday, Jan. 28. edition. The signs in the photo clearly read Pro-life" yet your text under the photo describe the group as anti-abortion. I believe words mean things and can have power. Certainly, you as a publisher of the printed word, you do, too. I think your headline was an accurate description; however, to me the anti-abortion text is not reporting the news but offering your opinion on the event. Would you describe a pro-choice event also as a pro-abortion or anti-birth event?
