San Francisco Richmond Review Still Living in 1950’s America

SAN FRANCISCO

Liz and Lee Heidhues 5.10.2024

The Richmond Sunset Review is a longtime neighborhood newspaper which serves an area of San Francisco which Timeout calls the 27th best neighborhood on the planet.

Sadly The Richmond Sunset Review is not keeping up with the times.

Feeling its primary role is to promote feel good stories. With a pronounced editorial slant towards political views better suited to the 1950’s Leave it to Beaver America.

Law and Order and strident opposition to a more pedestrian/bicycle friendly San Francisco.

“Comments” we have submitted for publication are frequently ignored and not published.

Just today the owner/publisher wrote me explaining that my “comments” are redolent with “negativity.” Firmly suggesting that we put them on our blog. http://www.leesperspective.com.

We are following this advice from The Editor of The Richmond Review.

Michael Durand should publish his 📰 in a country w/nominal Freedom of the Press. He’s adept at censorship. He REPRESSES readers disagreeing w/his views. He PROMOTES well-known extremists like @markdietrichsf He EXILED @Dogrunner47 from @RichmondSunset News for speaking the Truth pic.twitter.com/Emob7XMzKM

@Dogrunner47 has a philosophical beef with @RichmondSunset Publication serving SF Richmond District. @timeout called 27th best 'hood on earth. Accolade current ownership ignores with its '50's 🇺🇸 mindset. Residents deserve better. Attached photos reflect Richmond Review mindset. https://t.co/jlMvGSYs0E pic.twitter.com/lJpIHz9OsY
