Ms. Bagley (lbagley@hearst.com),
I am writing to you in absolute horror regarding the remarks made by your White House press correspondent, Helen Thomas, where she called for Israel's citizens to be returned to Germany and Poland. This is beyond the pale for ANY human being to utter, but for a member of the press who actually has direct contact with our Country's leadership, it is beyond comprehension.
Helen Thomas' remarks were something one might expect to hear from a room full of drunk white supremacists or captured audio from a jihadist meeting in SE Asia - so to hear this coming from your representative in Washington D.C. has not only shocked me, but enraged me.
I am quite sure you do not wish that an obvious anti-Semite like Helen Thomas represent the Hearst Corporation and also, it's my guess that there are a tremendous number of your company's shareholders who are going to be asking for some sort of action on your part.
This is why I am asking you to IMMEDIATELY remove Helen Thomas from her White House assignment and terminate her employment with Hearst.
There is no excuse for her words - she didn't misspeak, she wasn't misquoted and believe me, her apology the next day was as hollow as the coin box is at the Houston Chronicle newspaper distribution boxes on the street.
Remind America of your dignity and ethics at Hearst, Ms. Bagley, and fire Helen Thomas on Monday morning. Many of us will not accept any less from your company.
I'll look forward to the termination report tomorrow.
Respectfully,
XXXXXXXXXX

Can we all sign on?
Hearst is a rabid anti-semite himself so I wouldn't expect much from his end. The only way to deal with these kind of people is through their pocketbooks. Time to list all of his holdings and start a boycott of the works. Besides, who needs his biased rag? We now have bloggers who can deliver the facts faster and better.
