Colbert I. King's detailed look at the death of a colleague -- and why it matters. And this gets me to another bit of unpleasantness that has bubbled up to the surface since Rosenbaum's death: the complaint that too much attention has been paid to a New York Times reporter's death vs. people who are dying in the District every day. Let's get something straight: The treatment received by that beaten and robbed man on Gramercy Street was not because he was a highly respected and apparently well-connected journalist. He was handled that way because he was a John Doe thought to be drunk. |
