No story better than sensationalized headline

| March 18, 2021 1:00 AM

A more accurate headline suggestion to the Herald’s March 4, 2021 front page sensationalized headline in bold might be: “Idaho lawmaker’s continued false anti-science claims and anti-government cries of lost freedom insults the year-long sacrifice of Americans especially our healthcare and frontline workers while denying the suffering and loss of more than ½ million American lives to a deadly pandemic.” If that’s too long a headline, maybe no coverage would have been better.
