Dear Editor, I read the recent article by Crystal Murdock, “Stockman Bank steps up after Government Shutdown,” in the January 11, 2019 YCN, page 1. I’d have to agree with Jon Tester in the last paragraph of the article. Ms. Murdock writes that Jon Tester announced he believes the withholding of pay was just a gimmick. According […]
Hats off to Jose Bustos
Dear Editor, I’m still clapping my hands together after reading Jose A. Bustos letter to the editor! I, too, have stopped my subscription to the Billings Gazette because of the false reporting and nasty remarks toward conservatives. I DO LOVE the Yellowstone county newspaper
Omissions in One Big Sky funding
Dear Editor, I think there are false statements and serious omissions in the One Big Sky article written by Evelyn Pyburn in the last issue of The Yellowstone County News. First it states that when private funding reached $300 million the City and State would both put in $75 Million. But where is that money […]
I received my radio call sign in 1958
Dear Editor, I received my call sign KN6LIW on January 1958. I have been a licensed amateur radio operator since then.

Even if an international agreement results in an economic boom, if the price to pay is sovereignty, it is too high, […]
Paying for USS Billings Commissioning ceremony?
Dear Editor, With all that our Billings city council is trying to jam down the throats of Billings tax payers, (note One Big Sky), one has to wonder what the heck they are doing with the USS Billings Commissioning Committee. When a navy ship is named for a city, it is expected that the city […]
Dear Nancy Pelosi
Dear Editor, This is addressed to Nancy Pelosi: Just an observation from a white, hetrosexual male in his fifties,
Rethink Outdoors Column’s political commentary
Dear Editor, This is my first letter to your very interesting newspaper (the rest will be way shorter), and up to this point appears to be a truth filled newspaper, not a liberal, pundit laced tabloid such as the Billings Gazette has become. The Gazette will not print certain commentary if it appears to be […]
Jury nullification keeps laws in check
Dear Editor, I believe if you had asked our founders what they wanted to accomplish with their writing of our founding documents, they would all agreed that these were meant to afford our citizens Liberty and Justice for all; just as our pledge allegiance to the flag states. Just as the second amendment allows us […]
