Rambling a New Kind of Journalism

RE: “Errant Rocket Kills Civilians in Afghanistan” February 15, 2010

To the Editor:

It is surprising to me the amount of unnecessary fluff was in this article. The deaths of at least 15 people are not something to be swept under the rug or watered down with unnecessary commentary. The fact that a military weapon that is “advertised as being accurate enough to strike within a yard of their intended targets” then there is absolutely no reason that the wrong building was hit. The wrong building that was “a few hundred yards away”. A few HUNDRED is unacceptable when lives are at risk. By allowing the authors of this article to ramble on for four more unnecessary columns is just ridiculous and takes away from the true issue at hand.
