Reynalds’ regular column is a disservice to readers
April 30I don’t know if I’m the only person who feels offended by the Daily Lobo’s editor’s flippant and rather callous response to serious inquiries regarding the reason why Jeremy Reynalds’ is entitled to rant in a weekly column.

Televised execution perverse idea
Jeremy Reynalds | April 27While April 19, 1995 started off as an ordinary day, it didn’t stay that way for very long. Just after 9 a.m., the nation was rocked to the core of its collective consciousness by a tragedy of unspeakable proportions.
Rivera’s vision of building baseball stadium on target
April 27Raymond Rivera’s April 9 column, “Downtown stadium is needed,” was a wonderfully insightful column on the possibilities of a downtown stadium. While not everyone likes baseball, myself included, most people in this city can appreciate what a relatively inexpensive venue such as the proposed baseball stadium could offer Albuquerque as a city. Instead of lamenting the loss of yet another entertainment option, Rivera is envisioning the kind of community experience that this stadium might afford.
Editor bids farewell; thanks readers, staff

Horowitz’s point is off the mark
April 26As a right-wing provocateur, David Horowitz has few peers. Particularly on the issue of reparations for slavery, he has managed to take a relatively obscure academic debate and make it a topic of popular discussion in several colleges and universities.
Reynalds’ naysayers immature

Arguments in favor of baseball stadium flawed
April 25Editor, In Raymond Rivera’s April 9 column, “Downtown stadium is needed,” there is a pretty picture of a new and exciting Albuquerque with lots of the wonderful features of other big cities. However, Rivera’s arguments are flawed in many ways.
