There is ‘objective reality’

I was appalled at Susan Salter Reynolds’ writing in “The Truth About Memoirs” (Jan. 13) that “Journalists, novelists and memoirists agree that there is no such thing as objective reality.”

What hokum. I’ve been a journalist and fiction writer all my adult life, and I disagree strongly. It is dangerous and unethical to deny the concepts of truth and reality. Carried too far, that kind of thinking can legitimize things like denying the Holocaust, to cite one extreme example.
