Watch it, pal. The man, under legal definition, from what I understand, caused this. The law says so, not the media.
May I suggest, pal, you first wait for the trial, second don't take everything from the media at face value and third not take everything so personally.
Let me spell out the following:
1. I am not saying the man IS guilty, all I am saying is that this man, under the definitions of legal code that is the Common Law, is MOST LIKELY guilty.
2. I read into an issue and decide for myself, so don't describe me as a gullible sheep, please.
3. I work in the Phoenix media in some ways, so yes, I am taking things a bit personally, as you can understand.
I think you'll find that most people here will be sympathetic towards the death of four men just doing their jobs. However, they really won't care what the law says. I think most people here will agree with me in thinking US law is mostly ridiculous and laughable. Everything that happens has to be someone's responsibility, the finger has to be pointed, the courts have to be snarled up, revenge has to be seeked. Nothing can ever be put down as an accident, which this tragic incident clearly is.
And as a side note, if your posts in this thread are anything to go by, you have an awful lot to learn if you want to be considered a credible journalist by Brits. In America though, I'm sure you far exceed the necessary integrity, spelling ability, sentence construction and balance required. You'll be blowing things out of proportion to funky rock music headline beds and garish graphics in no time.

It's an interesting cultural clash, in the UK an enquiry would be ordered to look into how the helicopters crashed, whether pilots were under pressure from the news channels to get the footage "at all costs" (as sickening as that phrase is now), if there would be any way to improve pilot communication, the necessity for five tv helicopters to cover two cars racing round a city etc. The central feed suggestion is a good one but unlikely in the exclusive obsessed news world.
In the US, the man driving on the car on the ground, who did not dispatch the helicopters, is blamed. I hate to suggest it but the way the media are immediately pushing this angle could be an attempt to cover their own mistakes.
