Level of empathy required from the press?

Isn't that exactly the opposite of what you want in a reporter?

Empathy is about feelings Gel.  I don't consider news to be about feelings.
Maybe it's just me but I am more of a "the facts and nothing but the facts"
kind of guy.

No, that too is Satire.

This is not the case with the Dutch Newspapers which initially ran their
series of Articles on Islam with accompanying writeups and editorials
related to the cartoons which was not satire (and has never been described
as such by the Newspaper in question, nor the editor who chose to run the
pieces ). The level of responsibility and empathy in the case of SouthPark
is far from what is expected of CNN or the BBC.

Hence there is no comparison between the two.
