I have had my own experiences delaing with the tabloids after a fatal helicopter accident (and the reporters that day, where nothing short of bloodthirsty, trying desperately to bend the conversation the way they wanted it)
Unfortunately it is their job. Not nice but it sells the tabloids and sensationalism if the name of the game.

if you remember Lockerbie they said the reporters were there allowed to access the cordoned off area even after relatives where trying to get access to the site where their loved ones last moments were.

Very sad and to think a 5 year old was involved. They should show more respect.
