Why the media pisses people off

After retired football great Reggie White died, the Associated Press moved a story that carried this statement from the deceased's widow:

"Today our beloved husband, father and friend passed away. His family appreciates your thoughts and prayers as we mourn the loss of Reggie White. We want to thank you in advance for honoring our privacy.”

And in the next graf, the AP says:

"A police officer was outside White’s Tudor-style home in a gated community, and would not let a reporter approach the house."

Packers violated U.S. Flag Code by lowering flags.
