The Toronto Sun Family blog has long been criticizing the Toronto Sun for its lack of coverage on the 42-day-old search for missing Woodstock girl Victoria (Tori) Stafford. The case has now been upgraded from a missing child case to a murder case with the arrest of 28-year-old Michael Thomas C.S. Rafferty and 18-year-old Terri-Lynne McClintic, who were featured on today’s cover.
On Friday April 10th, Toronto Sun Family wrote: “Upfront space was available for stories about cats and dogs and the continuing bad economy, (yawn), but not for the desperate search for Victoria “Tori” Stafford, 8, and news that Oxford police have video of the girl walking with an unidentified woman.”
Now that the suspects have been arrested and the case has been all but solved (they’re still looking for the body), the Toronto Sun has dedicated an entire cover and 5 pages inside. I guess a murder story is more “newsworthy” than a missing child story.
Cover Rating: NEUTRAL NEWS
