One undated newspaper clipping from Donald H. and Cedric A. Scott, John S. Hanna, C. Birk Lefler and Robery V. Edwards. Item is a letter to the editor defending President Nixon against media coverage of the impeachment. They write, "The President gets our support because of what he stands for in opposing those two trends and because his opponents are to get him by fair means or foul. The media is handmaiden of these opponents because the media itself is so frequently dominated by ‘leftism’ and also appears willing to sell its soul for headlines. Objective news reporting seems secondary." Item is attached with three other newspaper clippings and a letter to Congressman Carlos J. Moorhead. (see GLC09613.02.2263.01-.03)
