Abstract

The Lincoln County Weekly published an editorial on May 18 that advocated shutting down the Maine Yankee nuclear power plant in Wiscasset until the public received straight answers abut problems at the facility. Soon after the editorial appeared, Maine Yankee told a LCW advertising representative that the company would no longer advertise in the paper. David Morse, chief executive officer and publisher of Courier Publications, said Maine Yankee's move is an attempt to muzzle the news media. Leann Diehl of Maine Yankee said advertising in the paper so soon after the editorial appeared would have been demoralizing to the company's employees.
