Excellent study into the reporting of tragedy by Libby Brooks in today's Guardian. It's not a new subject but it's a lot more reasoned and researched than the usual "numbers vs drama vs prejudice" argument. The key question of how "we negotiate ... our distribution of empathy" is put to -- and dealt with intelligently by -- editors, philosophers and political analysts.
