Writer should look at real life

Editor:

In his article in the Arts section about Hollywood's bad films (Wildcat, June 21), Jon Roig says that people in today's lifestyle want to see an alien-scare type film such as "Outbreak". Just one comment, Jon ... have you ever watched the news in the past months and heard about that African virus that kills swiftly and is carried in part by animals? Yes, that's right, I'm talking about the Ebola virus. Maybe a look at real life doesn't make "Outbreak" as "alien" as first thought.
