Dith Pran funeral service in South Plainfield, New Jersey, April 6, 2008

Former New York Times journalist Sydney Schanberg delivers the eulogy during funeral services for New York Times photojournalist Dith Pran in South Plainfield, N.J., Sunday April 6, 2008. Dith was the Cambodian-born journalist whose harrowing tale of enslavement and eventual escape from that country's murderous Khmer Rouge revolutionaries in 1979 became the subject of the award-winning film 'The Killing Fields.' He was working as an interpreter and assistant for Schanberg in Phnom Penh, the Cambodian capital, when the Vietnam War reached its chaotic end in April 1975 and both countries were taken over by Communist forces.

I think that everything published made a bunch of sense.

However, what about this? suppose you were to write a killer headline?
I am not saying your content is not good, however suppose you added a post title
that grabbed folk's attention? I mean "Dith Pran funeral service in South Plainfield, New Jersey, April 6, 2008" is kinda plain. You could glance at Yahoo's front page
and watch how they create article titles to
grab viewers interested. You might try adding a video or a related picture or two to get people excited about everything've written. In my opinion, it could make your posts a little livelier.
