Hello;

Thank you for taking the time to read my complaint.  As a subscriber
of the GR Press and a supporter of local media, I read something this
evening that deeply disturbs me.  Apparently, the GR Press has taken
dollars to forward a DVD of racist propaganda from a group/individuals
known for spreading hatred and misunderstanding of members of our
community.

If this is in fact true, I ask that you review your process for
vetting advertisers as I believe that the people of Grand Rapids are
tolerant and understanding of world cultures which runs contrary to
material such as this.  A good many people of all colors, creeds, and
religions call Grand Rapids home and it is an affront to the community
for the local media to be used to distribute this kind of material.

For your reference, here is a web link that may give you an idea of
what I’m talking about.

If the inclusion of the Grand Rapids Press in this list is in fact
incorrect, I suggest that you contact the Huffington Post and ask for
a correction.  I would also be interested in an official response from
the Press regarding this issue.

Again, thank you very much for your time and attention.
