Washington Post Cancels GM Lubomir Kavalek’s Online Chess Column – Help Get it Back
www.jrobichess.com http The Washington Post cancelled Chess Grandmaster Lubomir Kavaleks Online Chess Column this month, and I would like you to write an email and send it to the Post at letters@washpost.com (their letter to the editor through email) asking them to reconsider their decision. Mr. Kavaleks contributions to the chess world are impressive, and having chess columns in various forms of media is important for the game we all love. Other notable publications that continue to have chess columns include the New York Times online, for example. They have a column called “Gambit” by Dylan McClain. Feel free to post what you sent the Washington Post in the comment section below. Hopefully Mr. Kavalek will get his column back. If he does I will be removing this video so that the Washington Post doesnt receive unnecessary emails in the future. To read Mr. Kavalek’s last posted article, visit tinyurl.com
