Dear Mr. Smith:

I regret to inform you that the University of Chicago free press has decided not to accept your ad.

However, we are doing a story on the matter and I have a few questions I wanted to ask you:

1) Have you attempted to place the ad for the Irving book in any other campus newspapers? Do you plan to? We would be interested in knowing about their reactions.

2) Why have you waited until now to place more ads after the controversial ads you wrote in 1991-93?

3) Does Irving endorse your organization?

4) How did you hear about the free press, and do you have any reaction to our decision?

Please feel free to email me any responses to these questions, and any other comments on the issue that you wish to make.

Thanks,
John Wilson
