SHOOTING: TNT shouldn't have named gunman

It was extremely disappointing to see The News Tribune print the name of the Umpqua Community College gunman in the front-page headline Friday.

What has happened to the paper’s integrity? Have you totally sold out to sensationalizing tragedy?

My hope is you will operate with more respect for horrible events, and all those impacted by horrific crimes, including your readers, with more sensitivity and compassion in the future.
