Box 599 Cincinnati, Ohio 45201 To whom it may concern: Thank you for deciding not to sponsor Dr. Laura's show. While we understand from your statement that you `do not oppose or endorse Dr. Laura Schlessinger or her broad range of opinions,' your sponsorship of the show would have certainly given the appearance of endorsement. We are glad that you `respect the diversity of views' held by your customers, and that you recognize that some of us are extremely disturbed by Dr. Laura's comments about religious and sexual minorities. Sincerely, Barbara Lamond Purdom Christopher Purdom Interfaith Working Group Coordinators The above letter was sent on IWG letterhead listing 20 congregations and religious organizations and 66 clergy from 16 religious traditions.
