Byline: Rick Wright Of the Journal

The question asked of Fran Fraschilla, new kid in town, was not whether he approved of the Albuquerque Journal's decision to play the story of Damion Walker's weekend arrest on the front page of Sunday's newspaper. The question was whether that play surprised him.

Still, it was a hanging curve that a master spinner would have at least tried to hit out of the park.

It was a perfect opportunity to express concern, consternation, even outrage at the decision to take a 22-year-old basketball player's arrest for allegedly breaking into a van and assign it news value just below the latest happenings in Kosovo.

It was a chance, just maybe, to influence how such future stories are played.
