[quote user="kenneo"] <P>Dave ............ when someone authors a piece for publication, there are space criteria that must be met (the piece must not be too short or too long) and also the publisher will require the author to stay on subject. </P> <P>Captive shippers and differential pricing were not part of the subject.</P> <P>As long as the article is accurate, it does not matter what the author's feelings or beliefs are.</P> <P>And since this was an opinion piece, accuracy is not relevent. Opinion is.</P> <P>[/quote]</P> <P>Short and sweet answer:</P> <P>Writing a synopsis on the battle to reregulate railroads (or stave off that eventuality) without even mentioning captive shipper abuses/differential pricing is like writing a synopsis on the cause of the Civil War without mentioning slavery.</P>
