In the next two months, Americans will get their fill of political ads.

The letters to the editors run the same old, same old, waa waa waa, bla bla bla about Trump and Harris. How many times do I have to read about, he went bankrupt, he slept with porn stars, she slept with Willie, Bill slept with whoever, she eats salad, Sleepy Joe, goodbye Joe.

Like mad "Karens", both sides spew and spew and spew.

Fresh topics are what belong in the cherished space of the letters to the editors, not the regurgitated content that appears every day. It is plagiarism, repeating the same content over and over.

These letters can be put online where the "Karens" can read what they already know, but for some reason, they need to be reminded of it.

I recall in my Civics class what was called, " The Yellow Press", where sordid subject matter was published to get the most papers sold. Has the Arizona Dailey star become the Arizona Yellow Star?
