Cooked to Death

A man was cooked to death at a seafood factory in Santa Fe Springs, California.  The 62 year old worker of Bumble Bee Foods was found dead in the “steaming machine.”  They are still investigating how he ended up in the oven or if there was any safety violations. The plant has been suspended from operating until Monday.

Read the story here.

This story is newsworthy because it is so bazaar.  People will be shocked by just reading the title of the article, making them read the whole thing.  It is not a long news story, but they are still trying to figure out reasons for the accident.  This could cause a follow up story that people will want to read to find out why he was in the oven. It would be newsworthy for people in the California area for people that know of that plant or get food from there.

    Got any Bumble Bee tuna in the cupboard? People would want to know this before they go shopping.
