You should consider taking that comment out. Any person here who has friends or knows people afflicted by cancer, AIDs, or HIV will not like what you've said at all.

I never said one death was more important than another. I said one death was more
newsworthy than another. Yes, A.I.D.S. victims suffer a lot more than the people who died on the shuttle. That doesn't make each death worth reporting on the front page (or at all).
