Letter: Political Bias

Letter to the EditorPrint Story | Email Story

To the Editor:

Do you only report about Democrat candidates or am I missing your reporting on Republican candidates some how? The Berkshire Eagle is a left-favoring periodical that I've learned to simply ignore because of their bias. Please clarify my dilemma sooner than later.

I appreciate your efforts & overall coverage but it appears a political bias is showing itself.

Editor's note: iBerkshires covers all local candidates and state candidates who visit Berkshire County (and let us know they're coming!) We have been focusing on the upcoming primary, which has no local Republican races. We wrote about gubernatorial candidate Geoffry Diehl and two candidates who recently came to Pittsfield.

Annual Elk on the Trail Memorial Service Saturday

FLORIDA, Mass. — The Benevolent and Protective Order of Elks will hold its annual memorial service for veterans and fallen servicemen and women on Saturday, June 17, at noon. 
 
Hosted by the North Adams Elks Lodge 487, it will take place at the Elk on the Trail at the Whitcomb Summit on Route 2. 
 
This is the only Massachusetts Elks Association sponsored memorial service and brings together not only Elks across the state, but the local community as well, and is open to the public. It is held each year in June to commemorate the anniversary of the Elk on the Trail's unveiling and dedication on June 17, 1923, to honor Elks members who had died in World War I. 
 
Several state officers will take part in the ceremony as well as a flag honor guard, who will present the flags of each branch of the service. Musical selections will be performed by the Drury High School band and there will be a reading of the meaning of the 13 folds of the American flag and tribute to the vacant chair. 
 
Memorial wreaths will be presented by a representative of each lodge present and taps will be played by members of Westfield-West Springfield Lodge 1481. The gun salute will be performed by the Northern Berkshire Honor Guard, which is based at North Adams American Legion Post 125
 
A luncheon will follow, hosted by the North Adams Lodge, located at 100 Eagle St., North Adams.
