Letter: Spotlight on behavior too intense

The Columbian
Published: December 23, 2013, 4:00pm

When I was raising my family, all my kids heard about on the news was President Clinton and his behavior with an intern. This was talked about daily on radio, television and in print. Weeks and weeks went by. There was no hiding it from my children, ranging in age from 2 to 15 at the time. But he didn’t lose his position.

Regarding the suspension of Phil Robertson from the reality show “Duck Dynasty,” I respect Robertson’s gutsy morals. He can handle the heat.
