First, to Marcy Burstiner, Media Maven. In the Dec. 3 issue you responded to 10-year old Ciara Cheli-Colando’s letter, who countered your opinion of NPR subject matter.

Second, to Charlie Myers, Filmland. The film The Road was released Nov. 25 and Precious was released Nov. 26. Why have these films not been shown in Humboldt County? Is there some form of censorship or are we too far out in the boondocks?
