To the Editor:

Re: “People’s Republic Honors 60th Anniversary,” News, Oct. 2

The omissions in this article are an unfortunate example of journalistic negligence. How is it that out of an 880 word article about the history of the People’s Republic of China, there are only 70 words about the genocide of the government against its own people?

This weekend marks a very important milestone for me. This Friday, February 13, 2009, I shall turn 21 and a half.
