One letter from James M. Reynolds to Ralph P. Davidson and forwarded to Congressman Carlos J. Moorhead dated November 7, 1973. Reynolds is against the impeachment of President Nixon. The letter is addressed to Ralph P. Davidson, publisher of TIME Magazine. Reynolds wishes to cancel 3 subscriptions after 34 years of subscribing. He claims that TIME is anti-Nixon and doesn't want to read propaganda. He writes, "You helped get the Nixon lynch mob moving by printing leaks, lies and half-truths amongst the facts--but never retracting them. A 'free press' in your idiom is a cover-up for irresponsible, sensational press, uncontrolled and unresponsive."
