LETTER: Photo distortion misleads readers

I think you owe your readers an apology for the photo-shopped picture of President Joe Biden that accompanied Megan McArdle’s essay on page 1E of the Oct. 9 Review-Journal. Obviously you wanted to support Ms. McArdle’s contention that Mr. Biden is too old to run again, but what a sorry way to do it.

I’m used to newspapers intentionally publishing the most unflattering images they can of public figures, but running a photo through FaceApp to deliberately distort it and then placing it so prominently on the front page of the Viewpoints section is, to me, a new low.

LETTER: Still after the Jan. 6 protesters

So more than three years after the riot, the government is still using taxpayer money and manpower in its vendetta to ferret out Donald Trump supporters.

LETTER: Columbia kids need to learn to pay their own way

Frankly, if I had kids at Columbia who participated in these “protests,” I’d yank them out of school, toss their stuff onto the lawn and tell them to get a job, go live in the real world and pay your own way.

LETTER: Here’s the real threat to democracy

In the 2020 election, Mr. Biden ran on promises he has failed to keep. Fool me once, shame on you. Fool me twice, shame on me.
