“Motorcycle rider dies in crash” is a heading.
WATCHDOG: Missing from the article is whether or not the accident victim was wearing a helmet, a matter of both concern to other cyclists and, since this is often the case, a very constructive piece of information. Even the follow up article on LancasterOnLine.com in the afternoon providing the name of the deceased and describing the accident failed to provide information concerning a helmet.
NewsLanc has subsequently learned from Sgt. Carolyn Gundell, the investigating office, that the victim was wearing a full helmet with visor, not the small cap helmets that some riders wear.
