Covering death: an article worth examining

The Kansas City Star ran an article today about how school yearbooks in the area handle death coverage. It is well worth reading – and discussing – before the situation occurs.

The article examines the wide range of thought that goes into deciding how, or whether, reporting death is an integral part of scholastic journalism.

A tip of the hat to Larisa Capodieci for tweeting this article about the difficult decision of handling death – in newspapers or yearbooks.
