i dont know how something like this gets thru 2 the final edition. You know how many ppl had to see this before the ink hit the page?
I’m all for free speech, they can plaster the pages with this in the KKK newsletter, you just expect better from some people. Oh, well That will teach us i guess.

The media does sometimes goes overboard, but our on laws give them that opportunity. Unfortunitly we are going to have those who will disagree with president Obama on any issue that takes money out of there pocket and into the average citizen pockets. evryday i americans saying they work hard for there money,and the president is helping,but consider one thing. what would you be saying or drawing if the shoe was on the other foot.

I am not surprised, the editor allowed this ad because it is how they, the POST, really feel. Now that I know who they are I will do my duty to never ever purchase their paper and to never ever even pick one up to glance at. It is evident that they did not calculate the cost on that one, ethically, legally, or financially. They failed to realize that a whole lot of african american Dr.s Lawyers, Finacial Experts, CEOs and Entertainers subscibe to their paper, then again perhaps the message was sent to all of us. Consider it well recieved.

An apology simply is not enough, and a half @$$ apology at that. John Legend put some thought, effort and a lot of emotion in that letter and I applaud his willingness to take a stand and encourage others to do the same.

I am based in the U.K and would like o support John Legend in the boycott of the New York Post. Am I right in understanding that Rupert Murdoch owns the Post? If so I shall be boycotting his U.K enterprises. i.e. The Times, sun newspapers. Please could you provide information on the advertiser who support the post so I may boycott them I as well. I shall be purchasing a new car in the next couple of weeks and my decision on which car I buy will be influenced by whether they support the Rupert Murdoch enterprise.
