Publisher’s Statement – Sept. 30, 2021

The Uxbridge Cosmos prides itself on providing a robust, engaging Letters to the Editor section for readers, offering a platform for township residents to express views and/or respond to items in the newspaper. As our masthead states below, opinions expressed in the Letters section are not necessarily those of the Cosmos. The editorial team may or may not agree with a letter, but staunchly believes that everyone has a point of view, and that that point of view deserves to be heard.

What the Cosmos does not condone or support is the spread of misinformation. Our editors do their best to fact-check and verify information when possible, but this is not always possible, particularly when it comes to COVID-19. They are editors, not scientists. This has led the Cosmos to decide that it will no longer publish any Letters to the Editor that concern any aspect of COVID-19. This includes, but is not limited to, opinions on the validity, existence or seriousness of the virus, opinions on vaccinations/vaccine passports, and opinions on the actions taken by any level of government with regards to public health.

The Cosmos will continue to relay information that it receives from public health providers and various governments, as is in the general public’s interest. It will not, however, have its journalistic integrity compromised by reader submissions whose opinions may or may not be contradictory to that information which is deemed to be in the public’s interest.

Thank you for continuing to trust the Uxbridge Cosmos for your local news and information. Stay well, stay healthy, and be kind to one another.

Lisha Van Nieuwenhove, Publisher, The Uxbridge Cosmos
