I was watching Fox 11 news for a few minutes tonight when the story of a mobile home burning to the ground came on. The reporter started out with the following:
All that's left of one home in the Harts community in Lincoln County is a shell... and family members say all that's left of 71-year-old Kenneth Chapman is a memory.
I almost spit out my drink! I didn't know whether to laugh or try to be a little more adult about it. I have a somewhat twisted sense of humor and I had mixed emotions about the way the story was written. I checked the website and it's posted the exact same way.
OK... disturbingly funny or is it just me?

That's what happens when a very poor writer aims for melodramatic effect.
