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.

Public Memorial Planned for Jarvis Rockwell

NORTH ADAMS, Mass. — A community gathering to remember Jarvis Rockwell will be held on Saturday from 4 to 6 p.m. at MCLA Gallery 51. 
 
The artist died on April 25 at the age of 94. He was a longtime resident of the Berkshires and North Adams, and a frequent participant in the Downstreet Art events held in the teens.
 
"A chance for the Northern Berkshire Community to come together for Jarvis," wrote Jonathan Secor, former director of special programs at Massachusetts College of Liberal Art and founder and organizer of the summer downtown events. 
 
Rockwell exhibited his pop culture "Maya" pyramid installations at Massachusetts Museum of Contemporary Art and later in a downtown storefront. A small portion of his massive character and action figure collection is on display at Hotel Downstreet. Some of his collage works are installed at Bowman Hall at Massachusetts College of Liberal Arts. 
 
Rockwell was from a family of artists, the his father being Norman Rockwell, the celebrated illustrator and artist. Secor said a more formal memorial was to be held at the Norman Rockwell Museum. 
 
Gallery 51 is located at 51 Main St. in North Adams.
