"The
student of American culture, the patriot with red-white-and-blue
blood, the parent with typical frustrations and challenges of
parenthood -- all of them
will enjoy and be moved by Gregory Rummo's collection of columns
in The View
from the Grass Roots."
--from the
foreword to the book, written by Don
Wildmon, President,
American Family Association, American Family Radio
“Greg
Rummo will often infuriate his readers.
But he will always treat them intelligently, and he will
always engage them. His great virtue is that he does not
marginalize liberals with whom he is so obviously and
strenuously disagrees.”
--Charles Saydah, Letters-to-the-editor Editor, The Record of
Hackensack
"Sharply
written. A lot of people will find it fun reading. Rummo's
writing is provocative. Conservatives will find him
entertaining, and liberals will be left with plenty of food for
thought."
--Lisa Haddock,
Religion Editor, The Record of Hackensack
The
thing I like best about Greg Rummo is he's unpredictable. His
columns cover a wide range of subject matter--from sports to
politics, to religion--always with a fresh, down to earth
approach.
--Bob Price
Editorial Page Editor
The New Jersey Herald
“Mr.
Rummo’s columns are well written and timely. They are
provocative yet objective.”
--Tony Rummo, retired reporter for both The Newark News and The
New Brunswick Home News. Former editor for The Bernardsville
News.
"Greg
Rummo knows how to drive the liberals nuts. His pithy columns on
a wide variety of subjects are anchored on the facts, and his
opinions are intellectually honest and stimulating. It's hard to
wage an opposing argument against a guy who knows the subject,
his position and how to get it across through strong
writing."
--Dan
Mc Donough, Jr., Deputy Editorial Page Editor, The Courier-Post
"Rummo's
approach to his topic is always thoughtful,
clever ... never insincere. An honest person will enjoy reading
'The View from the Grass Roots.' "
Judy Lutolf, Editor, The Weekly News
"Gregory
J. Rummo writes with passion, conviction and a dash of humor
when appropriate."
Fred Snowflack, Editorial Page Editor, The Daily Record
