To the Editor:
I have written many times to the Seattle Times about the upcoming protest in Federal Way, and have been repeatedly ignored. I find it very alarming that the Seattle Times has published articles (many articles) about ABC show The Bachelor, while also refusing to publish an article or even a short letter about the protest. Federal Way has twice as many rapes as the national average; a protest to persuade our city council to train and hire more police and invest in police technology is important.
That’s true whether or not the Seattle Times prefers reality TV journalism. For anyone that thinks the upcoming protest is more important it’s Tuesday, March 31, 2009 at 4:00PM. It will be held at The Commons at Federal Way 1928 S Commons Federal Way, WA 98003.
