The publisher of a South Valley newspaper is apologizing to readers-after some discovered disturbing flyers stuffed in their papers.
Flyers promoting a local white supremacist gang were found by some subscribers of The Porterville Recorder.
The first flyer was reported Monday in an east Porterville neighborhood. Others have also found the flyers in their mailboxes.
Experts tell KSEE 24 news the sheet is a recruitment tool for the creator skinheads-a validated gang in Tulare County.
The flyers promote the skinhead way of life.
The newspaper's publisher says in the past, his staff has found circulation ads and other flyers stuffed in the newspaper boxes-- but never anything of this nature.
"We are very concerned about our standing in the community, and we in no means want to be represented as having anything to do with an organization such as this," said Mark Fazzone, publisher of The Porterville Recorder.
Porterville Police tell KSEE 24 News they are investigating the origin of the flyers.
The U.S. Postal Service is also investigating the case.
