Regarding your article detailing Samuel Benson’s interview with Mike Lee, “Utah Sen. Mike Lee’s private texts complicate his public statements,” I object to the bias reflected in the headline, which impacts the reader’s impartiality before proceeding further to the actual article. The fact is, the private texts don’t “complicate” his public statements, they clearly contradict them.
