Poor timing

To the editor:

I’m from New York City living in Lawrence and think that it was very disrespectful to have the 6News “Hurricane Katrina: We Care” telethon on Sept. 11. That’s the day we remember the families and friends who had someone that perished in the World Trade Center in NYC as well as the Pentagon and Flight 93.

I think that it was wonderful that 6News had a telethon for the victims of Hurricane Katrina, but it would have been better to have had it any other day except for on 9-11.
