I called Freds & spoke to the owner. I stated I might be inclined to sue but.... that's just me. I didn't push to ask what they intend to do but I somewhat gathered a reprint would be forthcoming. I'm having a very difficult time understanding or accepting their comment of, "It has never been our intent to put words into anyone's mouth." I wonder how that can be valid when they deliberatly ammended the ad?
After thinking about it, I decided to write a letter (see below) to the paper expressing my disgust with their actions after reading their apology here.
Letter to the paper:
I don't know if Freds Guns going to sue you for what you did, but, you certainly would deserve it. Your decision to take the action you did is as despicable as most anything one could conjure up. You had several options available to you before you chose to publish the ad but deliberately chose to ignore them.
PERHAPS the public might desire/DESERVE to see a FRONT PAGE story with a corrected ad in the way of an apology? Anything less is just your validation for a wrongdoing against an honest business.
