Once again, the New York Times has published a story portraying rattlesnake roundups (Sweetwater specifically) as folksy, family-friendly fun. The controversy surrounding these events is brushed off as mere predictable “attention from animal rights groups,” and we expect better from a well-respected outlet like the Times.
Send a letter to the editor to let them know that there are two sides to this story and it is responsible journalism to report both. Instructions for submitting letters and sample text to include can be found here.
