Fred Vanderhorst

Fred Vanderhorst reposts wire coverage of three unrelated news events without adding commentary of his own: a Utah teenager sent home from school over her dyed auburn hair, a deadly blizzard burying the Northeast under feet of snow and cutting power to millions, and the manhunt for former Los Angeles police officer Christopher Dorner following a string of killings.

Each post preserves its original byline and dateline, reading as saved wire copy rather than a personal reaction to any of the three stories. The blizzard post in particular carries full USA Today attribution and detailed meteorological data, useful mainly as a record of that specific storm rather than commentary on it.

None of the three posts connects to the others, or reveals anything about Vanderhorst's own opinion on the events covered.

Treat this as a small collection of saved news coverage from a handful of stories rather than a blog with a personal point of view.
