To the editor:
The “political admonition” inserted in last Friday’s Tryon Daily Bulletin is troubling. Political ads must, by law, carry the name, or names, of those who pay for them.
Just who is “Business,” as in “Business Against Amendment One”?
If I were in business in the Bulletin’s subscriber area, I would be outraged that this “phantom” activist is implying that he or she knows all business owners are against the amendment, and has the nerve to sneak that pronouncement into a newspaper!
The Tryon Daily Bulletin survives, I assume, on advertising from business owners.
How, then, could you possibly agree to cooperate with a nameless person who is making a blanket statement about the political opinions of all business?
The Bulletin owes many apologies before we see more such audacity in the coming general election.
