The Battle of the Press- Two California newspapers battle it out over the validity of violence and the gender of the perpetrator in relationships. How can this be possible? When the truth is presented will those who are supported by federal and local tax dollars do anything to keep the negative spin against men and fathers at a fever to keep their Jobs? You decide. |

NCFM is caught up in a battle between two rival newspapers. One is honest and ethical about DV stats, etc., while the other insists on PCness, bias and reactionism.
Please write letters in support of NCFM-LA and editor Steve Tobia of the Mountain Valley News. Tobia had printed a positive article on NCFM-LA that cited the DV data and admitted he was wrong in previously citing the 95% DV figure. www.ncfmla.org/mountain-valley-news-061506.html
In response, editor Larry Wilson of the Pasadena Star News criticized Tobia, attacked NCFM and reactively dismissed NCFM's claim about gender and DV by quoting a local DV shelter and a cop but without looking at objective randomized research. www.pasadenastarnews.com/larrywilson/ci_3961727
Tobia then defended himself and the 50/50 data, citing Gelles and the New Hampshire Commission on the Status of Men, and challenged Wilson for his PCness, bias and personal motives.

He also printed two letters to the editor supporting NCFM-LA. This is a rare case of journalistic ethics, especially since Tobia is a co-chair of a battered women's shelter!
PLEASE WRITE the Pasadena Star News in defense of Tobia and NCFM at letters.star-news@sgvn.com and larry.wilson@sgvn.com
Lastly, please remember to be respectful and courteous. |
