The pornography of suffering : I See Invisible People

The media loves a tragedy. They got one in living and dying color yesterday morning when Comair Flight 5191 crashed on take-off in Lexington, KY. Of 50 passengers and crew, 49 died. CNN lost no time in intruding upon the families’ grief. Note these quotes from their article Honeymooners among crash victims

Mike Finley, 52, who lived in Corbin and owned the Finley Fun Centers, was headed to Reno, Nevada, for a rollerskating convention, said his son, David Taylor.

Not me, another Mike Finley. Owner of the Finley Fun Centers, in Corbin.
