A Virginia newspaper is under fire by residents of Westmoreland County after publishing a Ku Klux Klan recruitment flyer on its front page. The Westmoreland News, located in Montross, recently published a story about the KKK flyers being left in driveways in Colonial Beach. The article quotes the local police chief speaking out against the flyers, which included racist and anti-Semitic language. The problem? Along with the article, the paper published a large image of the flyer, which appeared next to the article on the front page. Residents are outraged, saying the page’s design looks like an advertisement for the KKK.
