Dear Editor: Your piece on Fake News was right on target with a saliently candid message as outlined in the Catechism of the Catholic Church, published 1994 during the pontificate of now St. Pope John Paul II, as it deals with the relationship between the press, the state and the truth.

Dear Editor: Senator John McCain (R-Arizona) said recently that “If you want to preserve democracy as we know it, you have to have a free and many times adversarial press.” He added that dictators “get started by suppressing free press.”
