Christmas in Black and White
I try to treat the opinions of all readers with respect, but this one was tough. A caller today didn't like our front page promo directing readers to our page for kids where we are having a holiday coloring contest. Most of the page is a line drawing like you would see in a coloring book of an elf and a Christmas tree.
The promo reads "WHITE CHRISTMAS" with the underline "Kids, color our poster, and you could win a ride with Santa"
He said we insulted "the Caucasian race. This is a form of racism and we should print a retraction." Well, he said other stuff, but that quote really was his point.
