"I compare it to someone from the Howard Stern show calling CNN with a Pakistani accent and CNN going live with the report of whatever they said. Obvious it makes for "sexy" breaking news in CNN's eyes."

CNN is nothing more than a video tabloid. The National Inquirer is more accurate and more sensitive. My teenage sons and I just had a long discussion about responsibility in this context although the absence of malice part of the discussion left them a bit confused. Oh well youth.

Yeah, they didn't intend malice, but their repeated negligence with some sensitive news stories in recent years has led to a lot of pain for many people.
