Right on, Montel
January 31, 2008 by Melissa
Rumor is he lost his talk show over this. I have to say I agree. Granted, like someone noted on the youtube channel, you can’t know the person’s name until the family is notified. But, Montel is right. No one is paying attention. This isn’t an argument for or against the war. It is just a fact we are losing people daily over there and it seems like no one in the coporate media is paying attention. And, please, don’t email me and tell me there isn’t enough time. They have news on 24 hours a day and most of it is on Brittany Spears. Five minutes a day to bring attention to the people who lost their lives in the line of duty doesn’t seem to be too much to ask.
I have to say the hosts look pretty stunned and I think that is a sad comment on the state of our media that they looked irritated that he dare bring up troop deaths. And I agree with Montel. Heath’s death was tragic and I truly wish it didn’t happen. My prayers and thoughts have been with his family and friends since I heard that it happened.
I am going back to bed with my cold meds and sleeping.
