That's fine, Tom. I don't object to off-topic here normally. Just felt that the subject was done, and don't want to lose readers. Here is my reply to the LA Times on their NAFTA story. Lets see what the Reader's Rep does with it.

Hi, Kent. Thanks for your prompt reply, and your interest in fact checking. I am impressed. Every newspaper story done will have pro and con. But your papers total con is featured. My major objection is your article doing so little of the "Pro," and putting the "Pro" after the "jump." This is a well known trick in your business. The number of people who read the first part is way higher than those that will read the "jump." Here are the URL to several good articles that have just appeared. Notice the same subject with different headlines and a much more even treatment. Especially before the jump.

This is just the results of a quick "google." As far as I can tell, None of the Nation's Newspapers treated NAFTA as badly as your paper did on their news pages. Thanks again for your response.
