Why would the press in general be happy?

The hipocracy here is astounding. Anyone who cares about this incident 'caused this.' If you are planning to buy a paper tomorrow, you caused this. It is the PEOPLES' interest that creates a market for the pictures. Don't lay the blame solely on the photographers who are society's tools. That is very inaccurate and unfair. > >>This has nothing to do with genealogy, and for that I apologize, but it's >>how I feel. >>--And rightly you should apologize, at least think before you act on emotion, that's what caused this tragedy in the first place. > >>Thank you, >> >>Jim Doles >>New Orleans, Louisiana, USA >> >> >>--I would ask that no one pollute the e-mail system with hate mail, because as a member of the press, frankly I don't wish to read it. > >--This is a nightmarish night which all will likely remember with disgust, lets not make it any worse with personal diatribes. >> >
