In addition to the stupid, reckless and insensitve characterization of the crime, this incident highlights a complete and total breakdown in the editorial controls at KATU.
Nobody caught it, now KATU cheerleaders are angry not at what was said, but because it is now an issue, and the newsroom does not/will not/can not acknowledge its responsibility.
It would feel pretty bad to kick ass on the story for a week straight and top it off with what is probably (hopefully) the most insensitive and stupid remark this reporter will ever make.
