Schmidt to Clawson RE: letter from publisher Marshall Field. 1 pg. Friday, July 02, 2010 Page 1 of 1 ROBERT H. SCHMIDT 424 SPRINGFIELD STREET PARK FOREST, ILL. 60466 PHONE 748-7919 July 27, 1972 Mr. Ken W. Clawson Deputy Director of Communications The White House Washington, D. C. Dear Mr. Clawson: You will find it hard to believe the attached copy of a letter from publisher Marshall Field of the Chicago Daily News. It is in answer to my letter regarding a misleading News headline. When a publisher admits this kind of bias by his editorial staff, it is difficult to believe the credibility of the news media. While I realize our goal is to re-elect President Nixon and to avoid attacks on the press, no doubt Vice President Agnew would he interested in this letter from Mershall Field. Sincerely,
