Hey Guys,
My name is David Fonseca. As you probably know, I’m a reporter for the Enterprise Newspaper group. I mean, why else would you be sending me three e-mails an hour for the last year and a half? You may also remember some of the e-mails I’ve been sending y’all recently. You know the ones? The subject usually reads something like “DON’T CARE!” with a body politely requesting you remove me from your mailing list.
Listen, It’s not that I don’t care that congressional challenger Sean Bielat condemned Barney Frank’s vote on healthcare, or that Nikki Tsongas gave her seal of approval for raising taxes during the recession (those are actual e-mail subject-lines.) I mean, to be fair, I emphatically DO NOT CARE about these things, but that’s not why I’m writing this letter. I write for the Bourne and Sandwich Enterprise newspapers. My job is to cover the issues that will have a direct impact on the lives of the people in those communities. And though health care and taxes and “liberals gone wild” (another e-mail header) have a roundabout effect on us all, I just don’t think I have any use for what you’re peddling.
We all have a niche to fill, and I understand that for you guys that role is spamming my inbox with poorly written political propaganda. But my readers likely care as a little about your political maneuvering as they do about that time I found a sweet Mitch Richmond rookie card under my bed when I was cleaning my room that one time. (You know the one, with the sweet powder blue and gold Golden State Warriors jersey that had the Golden Gate Bridge across the front. That was so fresh! Anyway, I digress.) So, please, let my inbox be, lest you be subject to more snarky needling on my highly influential and widely read blog!
Yours Truly,
David Fonseca
Reporter for the Bourne and Sandwich Enterprise newspapers
President of the Mitch Richmond Fan Club
