摘要

One word to die by. That is all I needed. Cause of death: electrocution. When my wife told me how a local FOX news station described what happened to a pair of workers when they made a fatal maneuver operating an aerial lift around power lines, my nose crinkled in disgust. "Why did they have to be that descriptive?" I moaned out of my pillow. These days the media has mastered the practice of soaking the verbal brush they paint with and splattering it across the viewing audience for that "oohs-and-aahs" effect. Keep a tarp right by the couch, because it flies often and without warning. Instead of launching high-flying adjectives or twisting, turning adverbs to describe the state of the unfortunates' remains, I could have benefited more from accounts leading to the deadly breach. Why did two workers attempting to paint a bridge roam off-course? Maybe the operator was locked into surveying the task ahead. Maybe there was a momentary lapse in depth perception.
