Did Rotary President violate club's basic principles?

According to 5thEstate.com, "Rotary Club members are taught something called 'The Four Way Test' that they are urged to apply before 'we think, say or do anything.' According to the International Rotary's website, the test 'should be to develop and maintain high ethical standards in human relations.' "

"How did kicking a NewsLanc.com reporter out of their Lancaster Rotary Club meeting 'build GOOD WILL and BETTER FRIENDSHIPS' and how did throwing out Henderson, who had quietly observed the meetings for weeks, 'develop and maintain high ethical standards in human relations'?"

These questions were posed by 5thEstate to current president of the local branch, Alexandra Weisensale. Visit www.5thEstate.com for her reaction and to read the entire article.
