Paper's coverage was insensitive

Could you not have waited one day?

Chris Bunty, the high school student, had a great accomplishment in wrestling going to 50 off-season practices. The article written on the murder case involving the arrest of Christian Leonard Bunty was big news and needed to be in the paper right away. I feel that since Sandpoint is such a small town everyone will make the connection between the two Chris Buntys that were in the newspaper and that is not fair to high school Chris.

As the editor you should have been more sensitive about printing the articles at the same time.

This is a hard time for the family and featuring the son and father in the paper at the same time for completely different reasons was an insensitive decision.
