TURMEL: Ontario Press Council pushed on Expositor fabrication   Message List  
Reply | Forward Message #2350 of 2505 |
JCT: http://yahoogroups.com/group/turmel/message/3428 is my
letter of complaint to the Ontario Press Council about the
Brantford Expositor's editorial that lied about me.

On November 23 2007, Mel Sufrin, Executive Secretary, wrote:

Dear Mr. Turmel:
Thank you for your faxed November 7 letter apparently
complaining about the deletion of URLS from your letter to
the editor.

JCT: That was only part of the complaint.

I am sending a copy of this correspondence to the newspaper.
I must add, however, that the Press Council's policy
statement on letters to the editor says:
"In addition to the quality of letters and the space
available, the Council keeps in mind the basic principle
that a newspaper's responsibilities under the law and to the
marketplace for what it publishes call for an unfettered
right to decide what to publish, what not to publish, and
how to edit what it does publish."
Sincerely yours,
Mel Sufrin

JCT: Why is he concentrating only on what David Judd cut
from my letter rather than the lie he repeated?

Anyway, having heard nothing in months, I wrote to prod him:

re: "Turmel's Turmoil" Expositor editorial

1. Last November, I sent a letter of complaint to the
Ontario Press Council about a Sep 29 2007 Brantford
Expositor editorial titled "Turmel's Turmoil" which
contained a fabrication about me.

2. The Council's Nov 23 2007 letter informed me that the
correspondence had been sent to the Expositor for comment.

3. You'll remember that I had complained about the same
fabrication in a previous election campaign and when the
Expositor refused to provide an explanation, the Council
decided to abort the complaint procedure.

4. Once again, it seems the Expositor has failed to offer a
defence.

5. Is the Council going to do something or shirk its
responsibility again?

Yours truly,
John C. Turmel
Cc: David Judd opinion@...

JCT: So let's see if the Press Council ducks its
responsibilities once again.
