It's so sad. We Arizonans, just went through another mid air chopper crash last year(2 news crews).
The media said there have been @ least 5 medical crashes since May!!!

Ugh. The one with the news choppers was heartbreaking, too. Every channel had the newscasters on, trying to make it through the reporting while choking up and crying. I didn't even know any of the people who died and I was balling, watching all of these newsmen and women trying to simultaneously deal with their own shock and grief at the loss of friends and colleagues while attempting to maintain their professional composure. It was awful.

And then I saw my husband in our car on the news footage they were showing covering the carjacking that started the whole mess. (He was on a rotation a block away from where the carjacking took place.) Holy crap.
