Teen knifings get press, but not teen shootings?
Not to harp on the case or anything, but it's odd that neither daily paper has written a word about two teen-agers getting shot in the back at rush hour on a busy Roslindale thoroughfare, but both give pretty full coverage to three teens getting stabbed outside the Cambridgeside Galleria (see here and here). Could it be that, for whatever reasons, the Boston Police never issued a press release about the Roslindale shootings?




I thought that was odd too
Of course I have a vested interest, since I will live a block away soon.
Apparently, a shooting in Roslindale is less newsworthy.
A newspaper finally covers the shootings
Shooting sends two to the hospital - Roslindale Bulletin, 3/8/07.
