»$HB'CADRE. Nov. 
     
    
   
   
    
     Dear Sir. 
     
    
   
   
    
     We are writing in reference to 
     
     an article which appeared in the 
     
     .October 29th edition of the Cadre. 
     
     _”Media Manipulator." ‘ 
     
    

    
     First of all, we wish to con 
     
     gradulate you and your staff on se- 
     
     lecting the Halloween weekend issue 
     
     of the Cadre for this article, be- 
     
     cause it really was a Joke, Never 
     
     in my life, have I read such a bias 
     
     pile of crap. Bias to the extent 
     
     that the article seems to maintain 
     
     that there is only one side to 
     
     this argument; Senator McElman's. 
     
     As a point of clarification, there 
     
     is another side. a side that a 
     
     considerable portion of New Bruns- 
     
     wickers are in sympathy with. 
     
    

    
     We freely admit that we have not 5 
     
     been appointed official spokesmen 
     
     for the people of New Brunswick, 
     
     but neither has Senator M'Elman 
     
     nor Ken Waxman, but at least we 
     
     have the experience of living in 
     
     the province for most of our lives 
     
     and at least we are aware of the 
     
     consensus of opinion of the 
     
    

    
     people of New Brunswick. towards 
     
     Mr. Irving. As one point. we 
     
     would like to know if Ken Waxman 
     
     has ever been in New Brunswick, and 
     
     again, if Senator McElman has ever 
     
     returned to our fair province since 
     
     his appointment to the Senate: if 
     
     they have, its time they returned 
     
     to reacess the situation in light 
     
     of what New Brunswickers feed; ie.. 
     
     that Mr. Irving is a shrewd bus- 
     
     inessman who has done a great deal 
     
     for the economic wellebeing of the 
     
     province and has more than ful- 
     
     filled his duties regarding 
     
    
   
   
    
     .charitable contributions. 
     
    

    
     In addition, Mr. Irving has re- 
     
     peatedly stated that he sets no 
     
     policies for his papers to follow, 
     
     and that neither he nor any spokes- 
     
     man for his corporate interests 
     
     have ever dictated or attempted to 
     
     influence his newspapers in any way. 
     
     Mr. Irving has also stated that 
     
     editorial policy if fully the res- 
     
     ponsibility of the individual 
     
     editors. 
     
    
   
   
    
     Dear Sir: 
     
    

    
     Here is an answereto”dis- 
     
     appointed's'letter in last weeks 
     
     CADRE. He should have signed it 
     
    

    
     "disappointed shithead”. Please 
     
     excuse this extremely vulgar and 
     
     uncouth appellation but anyone 
     
     who dares to bitch and complain 
     
     about something, while doing noth 
     
     ing to change it surely deserves 
     
     it. I'd like to see the man who 
     
     can change the world but who can 
     
     not change a student newspaper. 
     
     If you care enough to de- 
     
     fend your stand— go ahead, put 
     
     your talents to use. If not, _ 
     
     then why don't you stop calling 
     
     names like a little baby and 
     
     turn to other pursuits which 
     
     will hopefully be less annoying 
     
     to those who are trying to get' 
     
     things rolling. 
     
     And I close, I 
     
     So here's to you mrs. 
     
     Robinson etc. 
     
     He who says why not 
     
     henceforth to be 
     
     known as (H.w.s.w.N.?) 
     
    
   
   
    
     >5c‘ooorw-v 
     
    
   
   
    
     Earmsms 
     
    
   
   
    
       
     
    
   
   
    
     In conclusion. we feel that Ken 
     
     Waxman is a perverbial piece of shit 
     
     who shares that title with other 
     
     Journalistic assholes who continue 
     
     to publish armpit articles about 
     
     problems they don't understand, in 
     
    
   
   
    
     provinces in which they don't reside, 
     
     under conditions they are not aware 
     
     of. In the future, we would ask 
     
    
   
   
    
     these perpetrators of opinionated 
     
     bull-crap to look at their own 
     
     problem-free provinces for their 
     
     tiresome verbal vendettas.

     It is quite obvious you have 
     
     been readinggK.C.'S "newspapers" 
     
     a long time. If you don't realize 
     
     he is controling what you read 
     
     imagine what the non-educated 
     
     New Brunswicker isthinking. For 
     
     many years Irving has been con- 
     
     troling what you think and he has 
     
     donea very good Job.!lsn't it 
     
     'quite possible that it is you and 
     
     not us who doesn't really know‘ 
     
     how much New Brunswick papers 
     
     are bias in favour of K.C.Irving 
     
     and his ownings in that province. 
     
    
   
   
    
     Of late we do not know if Ken 
     
     Waxman has ever lived in yourf 
     
     fair home province but be that as 
     
    

    
     it may he still puts forward a 
     
     valid argument. The article you 
     
     were commenting on was an edited 
     
     article which we received in the 
     
     office if you would like to read 
     
     the whole article we canmake it 
     
     available to.you at any time dur- 
     
     ing office hours. Maybe the f 
     
     edited portion did not have enough 
     
     information in it and if this is 
     
     so anyone is free to look at the 
     
     complete storyr
