It is easy to blame the press for things like this. Then again, there are shows like "Cops" where we just wait for them to riddle that damn "crack-blackguy" with lots of bullets.
Or when they show car chases on the news?
Aren't we all waiting for the big dramatic crash and, hopefully, some fatalities? It's so exciting after all!
Or what about recorded "live!" suicides?
We love that. We want that.
They are just answering the call.

To a degree, that's true. It's why tabloids are still selling, why non-entities like the Kardashians and Miley Cyrus are on the CNN front page --
daily!
But I still blame the press, they are supposed to be educated, they could set and hold a higher standard.
