Headline from UNC versus ND game was misleading

TO THE EDITOR:

In the past The Daily Tar Heel has defended its sports writers against numerous claims of bias. When reading the articles it's evident they try very hard and succeed most of the time" to prevent any of their own bias from slipping into the article. But this effort is ruined when the title reflects bias that demeans both teams.

Titling the article on the UNC vs. Notre Dame football game ""Lucky Breaks"" was an extremely poor decision. The implication that luck" and not skill won the game is appalling. To the writer's credit the article does not reflect this sentiment toward the game.

Personally I applaud both teams UNC and Notre Dame for the very exciting game on Saturday night. I just wish that the DTH would aim for true unbiased reporting instead of counteracting their own bias by trivializing both teams' performances.
