Of the many quotes in Friday’s Daily Journal from people in Smithville, one should not have been published. It quoted someone who suggested the devastating tornado on Wednesday was God’s judgment on Smithville.
The people of Smithville are suffering enough without having to read something like that. We didn’t use our better judgment and sensitivity in publishing that quote, and we apologize.
–Lloyd Gray, Executive Editor
