Attribution

I will be analyzing this article from the Star Tribune.

The attribution of this article is kind of strange. While it cites a number of the victims' friends and family in great detail, the lack of a dateline makes me wonder how they have all of this hands-on info about funerary services and tributes. On one hand, they must have been there, but we don't know.

Much of the information seems secondhand or speculative, the lone official source being an "authorities say." This articel is written like a hum interest story, so the personal nature of it seems natural at first, but it could have used more detail and official sources.
