I hate watching the idiot reporters saying things like, "At this point we don't know how the fire started or if anyone was inside, or what is inside the building" over and over for the whole five minute interruption of the regularly scheduled program. I can't help but think "You interupted what I was doing to tell me that you don't know anything?"
I would love to see some news anchor come on and say, "You may have noticed that many other channels were having a feeding frenzy trying to beat each other to the bite. We on the other hand were busy being responsible and were gathering correct information. Now that the facts are known, here is the story...."
It's interesting though that in both nature and the media, during the frenzy the sharks rarely bite each other.
