21. Listen, I once saw them reporting on a murder, a man had been

stabbed to death, and reporters were swarming around the place (a club or poolhall, as I recall) when the widow arrived with a friend or relative. She didn't know what had happened until she arrived and after learning her husband was dead, she became hysterical, screaming and crying, and the bastards just kept rolling film! It was the absolute worst behavior I've ever seen from media whores. No respect was shown for the poor woman's terrible raw shock and grief.

It's interesting that the stations we've been able to get from NYC, DC, LA, etc., don't engage in that. I know they HAVE murders in those cities, and they report some on the air, but they don't delight in them.
