AR-News: (AK - US) Letter to editor praises paper for bloody animal photos

Daily News made good call in running pictures of animal skinning

I was pleased by the Daily News' choice to print several large color photos 
of bloody animal carcasses being skinned as part of a program at Russian 
Mission School ("Learning old ways," Feb. 15). The photos showed what the school was 
doing for students. These photos caught the readers' attention and drew them 
into the article.

The News needs to do more stories about the achievements of Alaska's schools. 
The photos were not glorifying killing or death but showing the beauty of the 
subsistence way of life. More photos need to be shown of how educators are 
reaching students in these changing times. People who were offended need to get 
real and remember which state they live in.
