Sun gives Bundy undeserved space

I was saddened to read your page one headline May 14 (Supporter gets call from Bundy) giving your readers another Cliven Bundy story. It’s bad enough that the Review-Journal treats him like he’s the most interesting man in the world, but the Sun has shown more restraint. Until now.

Now you’ve given us a breathless story of Bundy calling to a supporter. Riveting! As if the story alone wasn’t bad enough, you have to accompany it with another picture of Bundy (is he now the most recognized man in the state?) along with picture of a military camp near Bunkerville flying the ever-present American flag. (The flag of a country Bundy doesn’t recognize.)

When will this nightmare end? At what point will the media stop portraying Bundy like he’s some kind of hero instead of another deadbeat tax cheat?
