Propaganda

To the Editor:

My blood pressure rises every morning at the thought of reading your politically biased paper. Because The Crimson has been "The University Daily" since 1873, its role in the Harvard community goes unquestioned. You have a monopoly on daily propaganda; Harvard students have no choice but read The Crimson if they care about what is happening on campus.

After five weeks of sifting facts from your gibe-infested articles, I thought I was becoming more and more indifferent to your impudent tone towards non-radicals. The "welcome" to The Salient was so ridiculous that I just had to write and thank you.... it was my first laugh of the day!

First of all, where's the EDITORIAL heading? Don't you think some of the more naive members of our community deserve to be in on the enjoyment, too? Let's face it people-things are getting sloppy around the old dynasty these days. Are you in any position to infer that "conservative students in general" pursue their politics with anything less than "style and grace"? Even my liberal roommate immediately saw through this sad attempt to prejudice Harvard students against The Salient before it's presses even start to roll. I think you are scared of a little competition. Look on the bright side, Crimson, perhaps some competition will motivate you to look twice at your onesided articles. Kara Lee Ellis '85
