An unusual article this morning, from the Oregionian in Portland.

Lovelle Svart, who had lung cancer for nearly five years, ended her life under the state's assisted suicide law. She wanted people to think about end-of-life issues so she and her former employer, the Oregonian, posted a video blog about her last days. The paper's editors thought long and hard about the decision.

Some will find the videoblog and stories moving; others will consider it far too intimate for public consumption. What do you think?
