Watch: Invading media

This week, wanting to know more of the Virginia Tech campus shooting I mostly watched CNN and their website. What I was absolutely stunned about, is the way CNN reporters have invaded the students' or dead students' parents' lives to obtain just ANY information from them. Like RUNNING after a guy who lost a friend and asking him multiple questions about how his friend was like, and how he feels now. Or like keep on questionning a dead girl's father willing to give an interview, even after it's obvious he said just about everything he was able to, just because there's still some time left. Or going around in the crowd gathered at the memorial ceremony and asking the students how they feel. WELL, WHAT DO YOU THINK, HOW DO THEY FEEL?
What came to my mind seeing this, was a deleted scene from One Tree Hill's episode 3x16 (when a school shooting took place). Exactly what I felt.
