Ethics panel clears Press Herald over Topsham crash story
The Maine Press Association Ethics Committee dismissed a complaint against the Portland Press Herald regarding its May 7 Topsham crash report. It found no ethics breach, noting public records access and the public interest justify reporting on alcohol levels and the accident. The panel said the report could have influenced public understanding and that journalists must publish unpleasant facts in the public domain when relevant. In a separate note, Biddeford police report a failed break-in at the WonderBar Restaurant on Washington Street after a janitor heard a noise and found a broken latch on a top floor window accessed via a fire escape.
