A Helicopter Crashes, and an Opportunity is Missed
By John F. Di Leo
“My condolences.”
“I’m so sorry for your loss.”
“My sympathies.”
“May he rest in peace.”
Raised as we are in Western civilization, we have an instinctive response when we hear of someone’s death, whether by natural causes, by accident, or even by murder. We think first of his or her family and friends, we naturally empathize with their sorrow, and we wish them these words and more, heartfelt and seriously.
We would be sad if a loved one died, and we assume that everyone must have loved ones. Our sympathy is automatic.
One wouldn’t think this would be a problem, but in politics, and therefore in the press as well, it can be – because there are people who have no loved ones, and with good reason; there are people who will not, and more importantly should not, be missed.
