Yesterday, morning CNN was showing a report about flooding in Midwest.
And while it is serious and tragic event, the note they put on the screen
was not formulated carefully:
"Flood victim said he was crying all day long".


victim |ˈviktəm|
noun
a person harmed, injured, or killed as a result of a crime, accident, or other event or action.

If your point was that a victim should be dead (and thus could not be crying)... not necessarily so.

If you meant something else, then I don't get what the blooper is??
