Community Standards: We decide!


by: liberaltexan

Thu Sep 04, 2008 at 03:34 PM CDT


After a showing of support from the community, through emails and phone calls, we have shown that the community determines "community standards." The Bryan-College Station Eagle has made the decision to publish the wedding announcement of Robles-Scroggs in the Sunday edition of the Eagle. The announcement will be on the "wedding announcements" page, and will probably be found on the right side and lower half of the page.

We live in a community of diverse cultures, backgrounds, and opinions and we must ensure that everyone's voice can be heard. This has shown that through grass roots efforts we can achieve civil rights victories, and there are no small victories when it comes to civil rights.

I encourage everyone to contact the Eagle and show your support for their decision. Send letters to the editor and let them know that you support them and subscribe, if you do not already, and let them know that you support them economically also.

Left of College Station would like to congratulations to John and Paul on their marriage, and wish them all the best.

"We cannot thank you all enough.  Paul and I were personally touched by the outpouring of support, well wishes, and solidarity.  In the end, I believe that it was all of you that helped The Eagle make the right decision."
-John & Paul
