In the Opinions page of yesterday’s edition of The Pitt News, there is a political cartoon depicting two very stereotypical Tea Party members claiming, in satire, that the “greatest evils” that the Republican Party is concerned with are witchcraft and masturbation.

I am a sophomore here at Pitt as well as a registered Republican, and although I do not mind political satire, I simply wish to caution The Pitt News to maintain their journalistic objectivity, lest the organization becomes the stereotypically, fiercely Democratic-themed University publication.

With that being said, I wish The Pitt News will keep up the good work practicing the First Amendment, and as always, Hail to Pitt.
