Fairness to all

Why is this happening on a local level?

I'm not sure what's happening with the Manchester, CT Patch but lately I'm tired of seeing these sorts of headlines that aren't necessary and frankly speaking, are only inflammatory and senseless. Two headlines begrudge the idea of a foreigner and one noted as an illegal alien. Both ensure putting those parameters in the headlines that are not necessary. A person arrested is a person arrested. To the point of the Robert Kraft picture, nothing in that is mentioning "Aged, rich pervert arrested" or "Kraft had prostitutes service him on the day of AFC game" it's about his "visiting" the place and zero about him going several times to a place that is steeped in human sex trafficking. It's shameful for a "local" publication to not monitor or exercise some editing in those headlines that are addressing brown-skinned people as opposed to this wealthy, rich, old white man. Shameful!
