Fair and Balanced? Not in Goldendale.

Condolences if you are Democrat living in the Sentinal distribution area. Be assured that the Klickitat Democrats send press releases to the White Salmon Enterprise and the Sentinal at the same time. The Enterprise prints our news, event notices and letters to the editor. The Sentinal? Not so much.

Last week we sent a press release about our County Convention to both papers. We are required to give public notice. Our members saw it in the Enterprise. But, surprise surprise, nothing in the Sentinal. For some reason, anything that remotely resembles something from the Democratic Party ends up in the circular file. We are not paranoid. We've been keeping count for a while.

So Klickitat Democrats: it's up to us. If you are a Democrat in the Goldendale area, let the Sentinal know what you think about their censorship. Check the Klickitat Democrats website regularly. Sign up for our newsletter and emails. If you have friends in the Goldendale area, forward your Klickitat Dems emails. Because information won't get to them via their neighborhood newspaper. Sad, but true. It's a small effort on our parts; let's not leave the Goldendale precincts in the dark!

  1. It's Sentinel, not Sentinal. Why am I a stickler for spelling? One reason is that if you don't type the name correctly your message won't reach the paper's email inbox (sentinel@gorge.net).
