Why Run Willie Nelson Photo?
RECEIVED Mon., July 31, 2006
Dear Editor,
I just read the article by Dan Mottola announcing Austin's transition into the "biodiesel big league" [“Austin Reaches Biodiesel Big Leagues,” News, July 28]. Despite the headlining photo of Willie Nelson, which seems to appear atop every biodiesel-related story in your paper, I was unable to find any mention of the man in the actual article.
Seems to me that it would have made a lot more sense to include a picture from the event about which the article was written.

[Associate News Editor Lee Nichols responds: That would have been our preference, but unfortunately, we did not have a professional photographer availabe for the event; since we desired to illustrate the story in a way that would be eye-catching and draw readers into the story, we went with the Willie photo.]
