Ref: the innocent victim, couldn't agree more. I think whilst natural that here the majority might moan about the media trying to blow this up in the end given the events it's hardly a surprise.
It's not surprising in the sense that all most of the media are interested in are audience ratings rather than any altruism for reporting the "facts".

Given that probably a handful of people will be killed on Britain's roads today then why don't they give those "innocents" similar coverage?

Don't misunderstand me I regard the loss of any life in this type of event as a tragedy but I have to say I despise the media and some of the reporting I have heard about makes me feel angry to say the least.
