Nary a ripple
Sometimes the nicest reaction is no reaction at all.
That seems to be the case with the lesbian couple who bought ad space for their wedding announcement in the Logan Herald-Journal. According to this article by the Tribune's Jennifer W. Sanchez, the "outcry" was "two letters to the editor (one for and one against), 10 e-mails, several phone calls and four subscription cancellations."
"You would think in small-town Utah that it would be magnified quite a bit, as conservative as we are," said Managing Editor Charles McCollum.
Could it be that America - even small-town America as embodied by Logan, Utah - has figured out that there's no issue here anymore? Wouldn't that be something that deserves a champagne toast?
