HOPEWELL TWP.: Readers distressed over choice of editorial cartoon 

To the editor: 
Shame! Shame! Shame!
Your choice of the holiday Santa cartoon in the Dec. 11th edition of the Hopewell Valley News is absolutely unacceptable.
A weekly local community newspaper does not need to publish its political views using Santa as the springboard. Children who wished to see if their photo was included in the “In The Community” article must have been very upset by the cartoon.
We are most disappointed in your choice of humor and expect better judgment in the future. 
