Letter to the Editor, (top Gainesville Sun—full disclosure at the end)

*Missing in Action*

On Saturday, November 5, 2022, three days before the mid-term elections,
the Gainesville Sun


 published no Local-State section.  The front section contained no local
stories.



To my knowledge, the Sun still has at least three reporters—Andrew Fats
Caplan, Javon L. Harris, and Gregory Harrell.

There also was no issues section.  Nathan Crabbe, Ron Cunningham, Cleveland
Tinker, and James


 Lawrence surely still have opinions.



There were no letters published.  Surely some of them exist.   What is the
latest about Terrell Bradley,


 who lost an eye to a K-9 dog?  What really is the story about a black
former K-9 officer suing the City


 for discrimination?



Are there no press releases of use from U.S. Kat Kammack (R-FL) whose
campaign ads are elsewhere?


  How about Rep. Chuck Clemons (R-FL) who is saving taxpayers a billion
dollars, apparently in the


 belief that neither public education nor Medicaid nor state police or
other public duties required those


\ funds?



What about Val Demings (D-FL), Marco Rubio (R-FL), Charlie Christ (D-FL),
or a typical personal


 attack on Ron DeSantis?  Surely there is some item of interest about an
old Chestnut, or the Clerk of


 the Court in and for Alachua County.   Hello.  Is anybody there?  (200
words)

Hello,

I haven't received a guest column on your City Commission candidacy, so I'm
just checking to make sure you received my previous emails and that you
planned on submitting one. Please let me know.



Thanks,

Dear Mr. Crabbe:



I am confused.  I thought you stated categorically that you would not
publish anything I wrote, because you didn't want to deal with my
potentially defamatory writings and didn't want to take the time necessary
to edit them.  You certainly have proven time and again that you would keep
to that policy .and have rejected numerous letters I have offered.



Are you saying now that I can have 600 words to write as I please?   If
that is the case and you will not edit for what you consider unacceptable
material when is the deadline?



Thanks,

Gabe Kaimowitz, candidate for Gainesville City Commission at large Seat A
(city) Seat 2 (county)

We offer the opportunity to write columns to all commission candidates, and
have the same standards for libel and personal attacks that we would for
other guest columns. The deadline was yesterday, but if you submit
something by the end of the week I will consider it for publication. And
yes, 600 words is the limit.



Thanks,

Nathan Crabbe
