The brothel (Bend’s Brothels, 7-21) article last week was extremely poorly written. It was painful to read – my high school newspaper had much better articles. The meat of the article could have been condensed into something one quarter the size. I kept waiting for some substance. On two occasions the author used a phrase like “under the cover of night,” but what happened didn’t really happen at night. The author made suppositions, without any support.
