Your story on the race for King County Executive, “Dow vs. Phillips” (issue 31, July 25–31) was uneven.
In fairness, it should have included Larry Phillips’ actual record of support for the API community. It’s also important to know who has endorsed him [which the story did not do].
I was surprised and disappointed to see this section in your article on Seattle Pride 2009 (in issue 28, July 4–10): “The presence of corporate sponsorship was prevalent. … ‘The corporate sponsorship is very hypocritical to me because they don’t really support their queer workers.’”
I would like to extend my very belated thanks and gratitude for the excellent article and coverage you provided for the 50th anniversary of the Greater Seattle Japanese Queen Coronation (in the May 30–June 5 issue).

To the Editor: Mr. Mark Lee seems to either forget or ignore the recent history and events preceding this lawsuit in making his assumption that race was not a factor in considering the choice of Kristy Lee to replace Susan Hutchison.
In response to the “Pageant recrowns winner due to counting error” story (May 2, issue 19), I think the facts are strongly misconstrued …
I appreciated the interview with Bai Ling (April 18, issue 17) — I love that girl. I just wish she would have commented on her role in “Beautiful Country.” …
