Waters letter: Mass shootings
There continues to be what are referred to as mass shootings where authorities just can’t seem to figure out why they are happening. The simple answer is all over the press and television news. Crazy people want their name and face in the news on their way out. It’s the 15 minutes of fame syndrome. When some fool runs out onto the field during a baseball game the TV cameras refuse to show them. How about the press not showing pictures and naming names. You can still cover the event. Like I said, simple answer.
