CNN should trying reporting facts, not fake news

To the editor: Well, CNN your mountain of evidence you said you had on President Trump for collusion with Russia was fake news, you lied to the American people. Try reporting just the facts, not the way you want the news to read! John Arnette, East Liverpool

Promoting awareness of sexual assault

To the editor: April is just around the corner. Did you know that April is Child Abuse Awareness Month, Alcoholism Awareness Month, Autism Awareness Month and Sexual Assault Awareness Month? As a domestic violence services provider, the Christina House has a vested interest in promoting awareness of sexual assault. Sexual assault and domestic violence co-occur in many relationships. Studies have shown that 30 to 40 percent of domestic violence victims will also experience intimate partner sexual assault. Victims who are both physically and sexually abused are more likely to be ...

Hurrah for AOC and the Socialist States of America!

To the editor: Rejoice! Despite the cynicism, the despair of a long-suffering public, relief is visible on the horizon. No longer will any citizen be neglected by a loving, all-embracing government, for politicos in DC have at last promised us Utopia. I speak of course of the Green New Deal, originated primarily by Alexandria Ocasia-Cortez. This wide-eyed innocent recently elected to Congress has, like a meteor bursting radiantly in the darkest night, dispelled the anxieties of those lost in a dismal swamp of gloom.

Letters to the editor

Against cameras used to issue ‘speeding’ tickets To the editor: Years ago, Steubenville had photo tickets, these were deemed unconstituitioal through a class action lawsuit. The cameras were taken down. On Feb. 21, our daughter came home to Toronto from Akron and got a ticket the same place we had gotten our ticket in July 2018.

We need to continue to fight this injustice. Technically, no one was ...

The right stuff

Editor: Today our economy is humming along at a rate which Obama and his fellow party members told us would never occur. We were destined to be a service economy a la flipping burgers at McDonald’s, Wendy’s or Burger King. A stagnant employment rate, a sluggish economy, threats from North Korea and Iran and second-class treatment by the Chinese were here to stay in a new world order according to these nabobs of nincompoopery. Boom! Along comes Trump and the economy rockets into high gear. World leaders are listening and not looking to kick the US on the shins. The US has gone ...

Choose America

Editor: An intensifying storm looms. At its epicenter is our American culture and biblical values. The Republican establishment, Democrat Socialists, anarchists and ideological religious militants are advancing the storm front. They don’t rally as one, yet demonstrate some very striking similarities. Internally, they are like a pack of wolves fighting over their prey. As justice in truth advances the forces of opposition in resistance double down. The Republican establishment is in jeopardy of losing its “good ole boy” status quo power position and relevancy. It is threatened ...
