WTF?

The news out of Chapel Hill is sad enough.

So maybe someone from the N&O can explain just what purpose this serves?


UPDATE: No idea if this was a regular cycling of the story elements, or an editor coming to their senses, but the link to the 911 audio is no longer up at the N&O's coverage of this story as of Sunday morning.

Thank you.

  • Ugh. That sort of thing serves no purpose whatsoever. Just sensationalist crap. I always mute those kinds of 911 calls when the tv news feels compelled to play them over and over again (as they do in some cases).

  • Not to mention the times I've called the 911 to report gunshots in Carrboro, it sounded like this: "Hello, I just heard gunshots. ... Yes, probably on XYZ Road. ... Thanks." In other words, boring.

    I'm not listening.
