SandBoxBlogs: Aspen Times/Letters to the Editor "Missing the big story"

Torin Yater Wallace is like....well.  A local icon.  And he's just a kid.

It's one thing for the non-local corporate newspapers (Aspen Times and Glenwood Springs Post Independent) to not know their communities; a fact that is proven weekly by how much they miss with their reporting.  The thing is, it is not just this story.  Nor the first reader who has complained.

It's another to keep missing these world class major news stories that our talented young people create.

Congratulations to Torin Yater Wallace on this huge win.  No surprise there.

  
"Dear Editor:

One of these days your paper will get it right. Aspen's ski phenom, Torin Yater Wallace, wins the European X Games gold medal, and not even a mention in your paper. Helloooo, anyone home?..."
