Is bad for America...sez the editorial page of...
The Seattle Times;
The Newspaper Association of America said it would appeal the Aug. 23 decision [of the Postal Regulatory Commission], which was opposed by individual papers, including The Seattle Times, the commission's own public representative and companies in the industry.
U.S. Sen. Maria Cantwell, D-Wash., and other members of Congress were on record against the proposal. After the commission's 4-1 vote, Cantwell was quoted as saying, "This decision does nothing to solve the Postal Service's problems and does great harm to the newspaper industry."
Senator Cantwell being up for re-election and not caring if the Seattle Times endorses her, of course.
