For years your voice has been a fine example of what an asset a free media can be to the citizens of a democratic nation, especially one like ours that is struggling to retain its identity against a rising tide of fear and fearmongering. My wife and I have often thought of how fitting it is for you to quote Edward R. Murrow, whose example you have clearly taken to heart. It could not have been clearer who inspires your work during the special message you released this evening in response to Secretary Rumsfeld's self-serving comments to the American Legion.
Thank you for your enduring courage! You are an inspiration to many of us, and I hope a source of disquiet and shame to others who are in a similar position to be of service to the American people, but choose instead to serve themselves.
Sincerely,
Max Robinson
