I need to reach out regarding the photo on the front page of the March 7 Peninsula Daily News [“Firm Details Timber Harvest for Clallam”].
I feel more attention should have been paid to photos that are included with articles.
Photos have the power to skew public opinion as much as the words of the story.
I feel it is irresponsible to show a photo of logs being exported with a story about timber harvests on state lands.
Timber harvested off of state land cannot be exported.
I am sure this can be confirmed with any number of timber companies in the Port Angeles area.
