Quick Read

John Futty’s piece on gunfire reports (34 a day in this city) had potential… Unfortunately, he seemed to focus more on the celebratory instances as opposed to the gunshots that are actually killing people (which do you think is more important?)… Thankfully, sports offset his blunder with exquisite Super Bowl coverage.

Barbara Carmen’s feature on rescue groups adopting dogs (metro front) was heartwarming… Metro’s other front page notable, on psychiatric patient services, was also solid…

Jeffrey Sheban’s profile of John Urbano, an Abercrombie and Fitch production specialist turned documentary filmmaker was insightful and very well written… Not well written, the Business section’s lead, which read like a Blackberry press release…
