A 6-year-old boy is trapped in a homemade helium balloon that is flying out of control 8,000 feet over Colorado. We’re told that the compartment that is holding the boy is not securely fastened. That’s bad enough, but the cable newsers are covering with live shots of the balloon. Has anyone thought about how this is likely to end, and whether it is appropriate to show live on television? Turn off the cameras before it’s too late.
