Dear Mr. Hyman:

We found your comment reported in today's Washington Post that, "The networks are acting like Holocaust deniers…" deeply troubling with regard to their coverage of anti-Kerry veterans groups.

Regardless of your opinion of the quality of news coverage relating to Presidential campaign issues, your analogy to those who deny the Nazi murder of 6 million Jews and millions of others is insensitive and painful. Usage of Holocaust imagery to score political points at any time is unacceptable.

We urge you to withdraw the comment.
