The news this week has been dominated by the crash of an Air France Airbus A330 which was on a flight from Rio de Janiero to Paris Charles de Gaulle. This appalling tragedy occurred when the aircraft had apparently entered severe turbulence but as yet there is no known cause of the accident.
My thoughts are with those people whose loved ones were aboard the flight, and I send my sincerest condolences. Though what makes me truly angry is the disgraceful behaviour of the photographers at CDG airport, who were ramming cameras into the faces of those whose loved ones had been on the missing airliner. Why can't they leave those people alone? Would the scum taking those photos like it if someone went mad to take their picture as they heard that their loved ones were on a plane which was missing? Those photographers would get their just desserts if someone turned on them and smashed their cameras into their faces, that is no more than they would deserve.
People complain about the press harrassment of Princess Diana, but she had encouraged photographers and publicity, not so the people whose families were on that airliner, and the victims (and their families) of so many other tragedies. No one ever complains about the press overstepping the mark then.
