...struck by this pattern of bias and misrepresentation in Middle East reporting. On September 18, a short article concerning protests and violence in Jerusalem over Israeli construction in East Jerusalem appeared.

While I applaud the Crimson for recognizing the wonderful job Mark A. Price '98 did as an emcee for Springfest (picture caption, April 28), I think just as much recognition should go to the work done by Chiqui O. Matthew '00.
