I want to say how terrible it was of the News Tribune to put the name of the family on its website less than two hours after the discovery of the horrible incident ("Three found dead in Superior home," Aug. 19). Just because the neighbor of the family has a big mouth and had to be in every newspaper and on every television station doesn't mean the newspaper had to publish the information.
