  • Brother HL-L2350DW

    If you want a simple but efficient black-and-white printer, I recommend this Brother model (HL-L2350DW). I paid $102 through Amazon Prime, which includes shipping and tax. It works beautifully. (No, I do not own Brother stock. I make this recommendation simply to help my readers.)

  • Regarding the Aug. 16 editorial “No More Enemies”: Once again the Post-Gazette editorial board has engaged in faulty logic on how to end the “enemy of the people” argument presented by the current occupant of the White House.

    The editorial board’s view is summed up with the saying: “go along to get along.” This argument fails to realize several things: 1) that’s not how you deal with a bully, 2) anything said about him that is not complimentary is either “fake news” or makes the commenter an “enemy of the people,” so he will never be happy with the free press, and 3) it is not the function of the press in this society to just go along. The free press is not state-run media.

    Only when said occupant quits lying and spreading his own fake news should the press back down from its critical functions in this country. I suggest that if the PG editorial board can’t stand the heat, its members find a new line of work.

    Note from KBJ: I have a question for Josh Bayer. Was Barack Obama the "current occupant of the White House" from January 2009 to January 2017?

  • Some members of the media are very Angry at the Fake Story in the New York Times. They actually called to complain and apologize – a big step forward. From the day I announced, the Times has been Fake News, and with their disgusting new Board Member, it will only get worse!

  • To the editor:

    Not only does the Trump administration diss sound scientific advice by its own Environmental Protection Agency scientists regarding fuel economy rules for cars, it doesn’t even bother to offer a plausible explanation.

    Saying that more fuel-efficient vehicles will lead people to drive more and thus have more accidents is as dumb as claiming that carpooling and mass transportation are bad because more people would be killed in accidents.

    The administration’s environmental policies are not just appalling, but an incredible waste of time that is desperately needed to bolster fuel-efficient cars and lower greenhouse gas emissions.

    It’s more obvious each day that big polluters didn’t install these anti-science Republicans into office because they were hard-working geniuses, but really.

  • Has anyone looked at the mistakes that John Brennan made while serving as CIA Director? He will go down as easily the WORST in history & since getting out, he has become nothing less than a loudmouth, partisan, political hack who cannot be trusted with the secrets to our country!
