Illegal immigration, urban crime, a Socialist President....you'd think the only Cleveland newspaper daily might find something current to write about. Instead, they have resorted to digging up the Viet Nam My Lai story. I think they need a little inspiration or direction.
They might run some other historical stories.
They could begin with the December 17, 1944 Malmedy massacre in which about 90 American POWs were murdered by their German captors during the Battle of the Bulge.
Another interesting story would be the murder of American POWs by their Japanese captors at Fukuoka, Japan on August 15, 1945. Seventeen blindfolded and handcuffed American air crewmen were murdered three hours after the Japanese Emperor declared an end to the war.
Perhaps readers might enjoy reliving the story of American airmen murdered and cannibalized by the Japanese on the island of Kichi Jima?
These are only a few stories. I don't want to do all their work for them. I'm sure they can dig up a few more.
