Outside has a long piece on this tragic case here: https://www.outsideonline.com/...urder-gravel-racing/
The writer seems a little too close to some of the figures to provide a balanced account, so some aspects might strike you as problematic.
I started to read it, but something came up before I got too far - I said to myself 'I'll try again later'
However, before I could return, a writer friend of mine called it "misogynistic murder porn" and "It’s a PR piece to help out a buddy of the magazine"
Someone else posted, "usually not one to root against print media but @outsidemagazine deserves every bit of their impending bankruptcy for running this story"
Yet another person said, "It's not easy to turn the story of a woman murdering another woman into a story about a man, but it should have been easy to scrap it before publication."
A bunch of Zero-Star reviews, I'd say; so I'm not sure if I want to give Outside those clicks back
I agree with all of these impressions. I'm surprised anyone at Outside reviewed the piece and thought to themselves This Looks Great, Let's Publish It.
