Salacious journalism

Lori Eaton

Editor:
I could not believe my eyes when I received my Fort Frances Times this past week.
Right there on the front page is the scene of a fatal crash—the crash that took the life of Aaron Hyatt.
How horrible for his family, loved ones, and friends to have to see this salacious display of journalism.
The parts of the snowmobile left strewn about leave nothing to the imagination.
We all know how and where and what happened, so the need to plaster it on the front page I find is extremely distasteful.
My deepest sympathies to the families. May this newspaper’s decision not add to their grief.
