LETTER : Not a fit time to face the press
Your support helps us to tell the story
My recent work focusing on Latino voters in Arizona has shown me how crucial independent journalism is in giving voice to underrepresented communities.
Your support is what allows us to tell these stories, bringing attention to the issues that are often overlooked. Without your contributions, these voices might not be heard.
Every dollar you give helps us continue to shine a light on these critical issues in the run up to the election and beyond

From Mr Barry Ferguson
Sir: What has happened to the English sense of fair play? Professional cricket captains, orchestral conductors - and many others - are drained mentally and physically by their performance in public. The last thing that should be expected of them afterwards is to face a press conference.
Could not the manager of the English cricket team, rather than Mike Atherton, deal with questions from the press - comprehensible or otherwise ("Atherton 'buffoon' gaffe makes bad day worse", 26 February)?
Yours sincerely,
Barry Ferguson
Shaftesbury, Dorset
