Editor-in-chief Diana J. Mason responds: AJN strives to present all sides of an issue, which is why we published both Geraldine Gorman's and Dan Mullen's Viewpoint articles. A good journal provokes discussion and debate, but too many journals won't tackle the tough issues that confront health care and our society. Part of AJN's mission is to do so. I hope that you will continue to support AJN as a forum for this sort of debate in nursing.
