<< How did the reporter handle this? It's the most amazing disconnect from even the rudiments of right and wrong. >> It was bizarre. The reporter didn't say to him, "You sound proud of them," which the boy did. It was so striking a segment that i'm sure it will appear on some of the news shows. I often have the feeling when I see people on the news reacting to horrible events, that they are behaving as thought they'd seen them on television. Flat affect, inappropriate smiles. Something emotionally peculiar is going on. You know when the Hindenburg went down, the intense emotion of the reporter who covered it, the one who was weeping, and who cried out, "Oh, the humanity!"? It's a recording they play from time to time. Can you imagine that intensity of emotion, of sympathy, of anguish, occurring now?
