Way To Go, Sun Herald!
On December 17, 2018, the site for the Sun Herald of South Mississippi posted an opinion article by Blake Kaplan titled: “Why the Sun Herald Is Changing How It Covers Crime.” It expressed concern they were giving a false impression of South Mississippi as a hotbed of criminal activity by focusing exclusively on crime reporting. This is something that does not bother most media sites because violence and bloodshed is popular with their readers and, by extension, their advertisers. According to the article:
“But what is good for us may not be what is good for South Mississippi. We need to re-evaluate.
“For instance, is there an imminent public-safety concern? Is the crime so serious the community needs to know about it? Is the crime part of a trend that warrants frequent updates? So, if a dangerous inmate escapes from the Harrison County jail and there’s a manhunt on, we would still cover that story. But we will run a lot fewer stories about shoplifters at Walmart and people who steal boats.
“A related note: We’ve also discontinued our daily “mugshot” gallery on sunherald.com.
“For years, we posted the pictures of people charged with felony crimes, and, again, it was a popular part of our website. But the mugshot stayed a part of people’s lives forever, whether they were convicted or not. Plenty of people have contacted us over the years to say they were cleared of the crime but that mugshot has prevented them from getting jobs. It turns up in background searches.”
I can only pray that other news outlets will follow the lead of the Sun Herald. Perhaps this example of truly responsible reporting is an indication that the frozen heart of the United States’ criminal justice system is beginning to thaw.
