And your point is?  An organization founded on dedication to a single
company's products can certainly endure an occasional mention of other
company's products made to the primary company's standards, and the LHSA
has a long history of mentioning such goodies, from Zeiss lenses to Wray
VF's to Soviet cameras.  But Tom's concentrated drive to promote Cosina has
made that last several years of the VIEWFINDER seem to be a publicity front
for Cosina.

This has nothing to do with free speech:  no one has suggested or is
suggesting that .  It DOES have much to do with freedom of association,
however.
