Letter to the Editor: Less fire coverage

Dear Editor:

Every year, the TV news media overplays fire season. 

On Aug. 16, KTLA showed their afternoon news program about the fire. Their one-hour program was 90 percent about the fire. This is just not right. 

There should be rules about this. A limit of 15 minutes per hour should be good enough. 
We need to help the firefighters and police who risk their lives, not make it worse.
