_______________ THE FALWELL CONNECTION BY MURRAY WAAS (03/11/98)

I have become increasingly troubled that the only place I can read a different viewpoint on the Clinton scandals is in Salon. I do not understand why no other media outlet even mentions your excellent investigative coverage. So I took the time today to write e-mail messages to C-SPAN, CNN, MSNBC, CBS, the Washington Post and the New York Times strongly suggesting that one-viewpoint journalism is not serving us well and suggesting that they read some of your excellent articles. I have had ENOUGH. THANK YOU, THANK YOU FOR BEING THERE. I AM VERY GRATEFUL.

To: Murray Waas and all the folks at Salon:
Thank you very much for your extraordinary article in Salon. Can your article be forwarded to the N.Y. Times, the Washington Post, the New Yorker et al? I fervently hope so.
-- Roger Burck
I have a question. How can this investigation against President Clinton be happening? This is America, and I see injustice on a daily basis. Starr is a political stoolie, doing the work of the extreme conservative right-wingers. We knew but now have had it confirmed by (David) Brock, himself, that he was the forefront of the drive to "get Clinton."
Now I see that people have been paid off to smear the president. Well, I am frustrated and outraged. Clinton has been elected twice by the people of the United States, only to be sidelined by this nonstop agenda of certain Clinton haters to bring him down. Taxpayers are simply getting the shaft, and many of us resent these relentless attacks and diversions from important issues that this country faces. Who asked us, the American taxpayers, if money could be spent to pay off money-hungry characters? And, who asked us if Linda (hello -- what is the definition of a friend?) Tripp could be put up in some safe house with full salary after ratting on her friend? And who asked us if Starr could run amok with our tax paid money on his little witch hunt?
I'm worried for our country. I'm worried about justice and I'm especially worried about a citizen's right to privacy -- and, yes, the president should be protected by the same rights that other Americans supposedly have.
-- Roger Moorman
At last somebody with some sense and decency and fairness when it comes to Whitewater. You are proof that you can't fool all the people all the time.
-- Matthew Peck
