TOWNSHEND — We are fairly new to the area and have enjoyed reading The Commons each week. We both appreciate good journalistic writing and have felt that The Commons covers local news stories with thoroughness and fairness, avoiding sensationalism.
We were shocked, therefore, by the tone and content of Olga Peters' article covering the recent tragic shootings in Townshend.
A word-by-word accounting of all or much of Robin O'Neill's uttering in the police cruiser was very unnecessary to a newspaper report of yet another sad and painful event in our small town.
Thank you for letting us voice our opinion on this matter.
