News Reporters Don't Always Use Their Brains
Sometimes I wonder why they hire people to be news reporters. This is a true story. I actually heard this news report on the radio this afternoon on my way to pick the kids up from school. It is a real news story.
The news reader said that an elderly man was beheaded in a busy street in London this morning, in full view of mums taking their kids to school and other people passing by. No one knows why it happened, she said. Then she gave some quotes from witnesses. It was her ending to the story that made me roll my eyes.
"The victim died."
You're joking? People die from being beheaded?

Yep, I agree, Gary. Ew. And to the reporter: Duh.
