I must give kudos to KCTV5 news in Kansas City for a well written Facebook/News article about a fatal crash that occurred last night. I don’t mean to gloss over the family loss, the trauma or the details in this story! My point is the LACK OF often used over-descriptive words and/or opinions and sensationalism by the writers of this new story and it was very refreshing….”news only the news”
2 killed, 5 injured head-on collision on I-70. Year, make, model of both vehicles described as going opposite directions. Time, date and who responded to the accident. Now deceased driver’s names recorded along with how many passengers in each vehicles were injured.
This is what news reporting used to be…no mention of speculation of what caused the accident other than an obviously opposite/bound vehicles crossed the center median and collided. No mention of impairments. No mention of juicy details, no mention of sexual orientation, no mention of political affiliation.
Thank you for just the facts KCTV-5.
