After recent reader response to a Feb. 11 letter to the editor, titled “Vision for city, county future is a stretch” and upon reflection about that feedback, we regret having run the letter.
The Opinion pages of the Times Free Press and our Letters to the Editor provide a forum for community members to express a wide range of perspectives about important issues. Sometimes what appears can be hurtful to read; other times, opinions and letters are celebratory.
In this particular case, we failed to adhere to our standards. We have removed the letter from the paper’s website.
We apologize.
