He’s right. This is a letter to the editor, and while there’s no part of me that has any problem that it’s published (newspapers regularly publish these sorts of things that are antagonistic and antithetical to the views of the paper), the fact that they tweeted it out first thing in the morning and clearly didn’t do a good job expressing that it’s a letter to the editor, well, that’s a ****ing problem.

Because now half of KC is running around with their hair on fire as a result. And that does no one any favors and is entirely a function of the way they presented this. Had it been accurately labeled, different story. But it’s even beyond clickbait - it’s just really poor journalism-ish behavior in an era of social media.

So, Clay. I’m sorry. **** The Star. They completely brought this on themselves and it’s deeply poor form.
My criticism was never for being against the Star. It's for 1) the hypocrisy and 2) elevating a fringe opinion as if it deserves legitimate discourse. I think of this "article" as being akin to a random post on Twitter with a hot take. We all know that Twitter is filled with idiots, and it's as much of a crime to elevate stupid takes as it is to put the take out there in the first place. At least the original poster KNOWS that they're trolling.

Now, should the Star have a higher standard? Of course. But, come on, are any of us actually surprised that they posted this? Absolutely not. I can't imagine there are many Chiefs fans left who don't see the Star's editorial choices for what they are. So all we accomplished by posting the article here is a bunch of ranting about an opinion that almost no one actually shares.

I find that the KC Star is at LEAST partially responsible for driving Tyreek out of here. Their treatment of him, I would have left as soon as possible myself.

If I sent a letter to the editor talking about how much Hitler ruled, the Star wouldn't ****ing print it.

Well, maybe they would. But they DID choose to print this particular letter.

They're at fault, guys.

But ultimately, we're all talking about the KC Star. And that's exactly what all they really wanted in the first place.

Agree its just one opinion. If it was on Twitter, we'd not give it a second thought, But, for whatever reason, newspapers still have more meaning than a twitter post. My personal opinion is that I give no newspaper any more meaning than a single persons opinion.

That's fine. Brittany sees the KC Start tweeting this shit and owning it 100% as their opinion about Patrick. From our hometown newspaper. It's infuriating. Congrats on going viral for being assholes.

Clay,

Sorry for going after you. The KC Star was wrong for printing that letter. It should have been trashed and never see the light of day.

I've cancelled my subscription to the Star
