I've been closely following the Malheur occupation, determined to speak
out, and earlier today I sent my local newspaper a thousand-word guest column
on the current situation.
Unfortunately the newspaper, based in Norfolk, only accepts guest columns
on issues pertaining to Virginia. I see the seizure of Malheur as a national
issue that impacts the rights of every American, but the newspaper has their
policy.
Can anyone suggest a publication, online or otherwise, where my orphan
column could find its voice? It's written for a general audience, intended as
a reminder that despite some heavy hints, the armed occupiers haven't gone away
and are doing no one any good. If anyone has any suggestions on where this
could go, please contact me off-list with my thanks in advance.
