Speaking of lousy reporting, I have to speak up and say that there is *way*
too much emphasis on the human deaths in this tragedy. Ok, it was nice
to at elast mention the people involved when it happened, but with
everything that is going on in the world right now, News Shows two days
later should not still be running profiles of the astronauts. Yes, the
investigation into what caused the disaster should be reported, and the
future of the space program should be reported, but ultimately there is no
moral difference between dying on a space shuttle, dying in a TWA plane
crash over Long Island, and dying in a car accident in North Dakota.
Unfortunately, all causes of death have never been created equal in this
country.
