Fashion and News

* Re “Murder Case Appeal, Film Stir Tension,” Dec. 3.

I would like to know if the reporter is a fashion writer, for she clearly is not a news reporter.

She managed to mention what the mother of [one] defendant and that of the victim were wearing to the film screening of “Reckless Indifference” as if it mattered to anyone.

I would like to know how this fashion report is of any significance to the fact that four young men may be spending their lives in prison or that another died as a result of a fight between them.
