Dear HCN,
As a displaced Montana
native and student of Western history, I only began subscribing to
HCN last year, although another Yellowstone Park
buff had recommended it to me some time before. I’ve enjoyed
reading about water, wildlife, ranching and other environmental
issues covered in your paper. At the same time, I’ve been trying to
make up my mind just what is the editorial bias of your paper. The
opinion column by associate publisher Greg Hanscom on Oct. 22 has
set me straight. “Standing on the fringe” and giving all sides of
the issues, you let us make up our own minds rather than
spoon-feeding us. You present a refreshing contrast to other
environmentally concerned publications. It’s an invaluable service.
Long live HCN!
