Blog #1 Newspaper article

"Musicians try to rise from ashes" in section A1 of the Columbian caught my eye as I browsed through the paper. It could barely be considered timely since the fire in the school occurred on the 7th of January. However, it does have proximity as it occurred at Pacific Middle School in the Evergreen District. It also has impact on those in the area and the parents as well as the children from the school. The best part of the story is in just the first two lines: "Dozens of Pacific Middle School students would gladly use a violin to embellish their sad story. If only they had one...." This story is newsworthy in my opinion however, front page worthy? Maybe not.
