Im sorry you had to see that! Our campus newspaper isn't much better. Last year a student died of natural causes in one of the dorms and they called the mother to ask how she felt but she hadn't heard yet. So she ended up hearing the news of her college-age son's death over the phone from a reporter.

And last week they reported a story about a student whos family was killed by a mentally unstable ex-boyfriend of a dughter and they reported every little detail. Putting what the people were saying to the killer as he tied them up and everything.

News people really irk me sometimes. I also think, if youre up for it, that you could write a letter. You might actually get some results - none of them will make up for it of course but at least you might get some kind of condolensces out of them.
