Blotters leave the blues

I appreciate your paper, and most of it is well thought out and well written. However, I find the way that your crime and fire reports are written to be callous and insensitive.

Regardless of the type of crime committed, your writer makes light of it as though it’s a comical farce. Crimes of any kind are very traumatic for those involved. It seems very childish and not at all funny to present them as anything other than serious. I’m incredibly offended.

Someone needs a course in sensitivity and a lesson in journalistic ethics. Shame on you.
