I liked the rolling news coverage 'man gets on plane, plane door closes, plane takes off.'
The on the spot interview with an airport worker who saw 'someone' get on the plane who 'might have been him' shall stay with me for many years.

Alt: no, I'm not cool enough to be at the vanguard of proclaiming myself bored of something popular.

The bathroom is occupied by a teenage girl, so I've about another hour to waste before I can get ready for work.

alt: seven pages of 'person plays game, wins' in the paper before any mention of those two shocking disasters
I just don't think that is right

It's not right.
I enjoy the tennis, and cheered when he won, but that's it surely? One page to get everyone who missed it up to date, and then back to proper news.

Also TWO air crashes in two days might be a tad more important than someone winning at a game

You might be forgiven for thinking so.

There are train crashes, wars and accidents all the time. A brit winning hit ball over net is the very definition of news.
