“Midshipmen on Break Allegedly Misbehaved” [Metro, March 28] reported about “alleged” misbehavior by midshipmen from the U.S. Naval Academy while on spring break. I was stunned to find that the basis of the allegation was not a formal complaint filed with civil authorities or even with the cruise line management but “Web site reviews” posted by people you assume were passengers.</p>

<p>Have you lowered the bar so far that you base stories on unsubstantiated Internet rumor and hearsay?</p>
