Letter: Providing a variety of viewpoints is important

I find it interesting that readers complain about the Opinion page containing opinions.

On Wednesday, April 12, a Daily Herald reader expressed his wish to encourage banning syndicated columnist Susan Estrich, a left-wing Democrat, from the opinion page.

Amazingly, I could have written the exact same Your Views comment exchanging "Susan Estrich, a left-wing Democrat" with "Michael Barone, a right-wing Republican."

It seems the Daily Herald does print opinions all of us, both right and left, can complain about!
