State of the Fourth Estate

The essays by columnists toward Archbishop Cordileone demonstrate the pathetic state of the Fourth Estate within San Francisco and its environs. The archbishop is pro-life and believes in the sanctity of the marital contract among women and men. His expression of these beliefs, repeat, expression of these beliefs has been the subject of scribed assaults by a monolithic press. The press, of all our institutions, should not even use subliminal suggestion to intimidate this cleric. Even to associate with such negative actions demonstrates a need within the Fourth Estate for a diversity within the local newspapers so as to cultivate a tolerance toward the expression by women and men of principle and viewpoints that may be deemed politically incorrect, i.e., as differing with the far left elements within the Fourth Estate, the social-welfare-bureaucratic complex, and other institutions which are, for the most part, minions of the radical left.
