One-Sided Commentary

While PAW has long sung from the lefty hymnal, “Alumni in the Nation’s Resistance” (May issue) summons forth the whole brass band. “Tyrant,” “intimidation tactics,” “attacks on free speech,” and “rampage against our republic” are but a few of many slurs that go unchallenged in this paean to President Trump’s opponents. You would think his adversaries were résistants in occupied France rather than foes of a democratically elected government. If I want this kind of one-sided commentary, I can read The New Yorker, listen to NPR, or watch CNN and MSNBC. I don’t need it from my alumni magazine.
