Front-page photo promotes smoking
Regarding the July 6 story, "Deep impact expected" in Rantoul, the story addresses job losses in the Rantoul area and subsequent loss of health insurance for those terminated employees.
While I'm sympathetic with those affected individuals, I noticed a full half page featuring a Ms. MacVittie with cigarette in hand and a pack of Marlboros nearby. I understand MacVittie is on medical leave and stated "her main concern is health insurance."
