Another kind of fire alarm
A recent story in the Register-Pajaronian illustrates the way local politics and editorial slant can take an isolated incident and use it to put a clever spin on a hot (no pun intended) local issue. In this case, a small boy helped save his family from a house fire. But the story finds a way to mention the city's future plans to close the very fire station that responded to the blaze.
