I have seen a few of them now, the way the news reporters word what they are saying, it all seems kind of...presumptuous or something, I dunno. It almost takes away from the massive tragedy that they are talking about, as if it is some ****ing television show or something, I dunno... Things like this make something so awful and tragic seem so superficial.

I know what you mean. It resembles something you would see on a documentary channel, in places. It reminds me of some of the American true crime shows I see from time to time. They use drama in their report. For example the bit where it goes "...Obviously they chose the wrong theatre." and use rather suspenseful dramatic music implying impending doom. It does come across as a little unecessary to me.
I mean, everyone knew about this story by now. It wasnt breaking news. This is a follow-up story about two of the survivors. I dont think you would see a news report here that painted quite the same story. As has been said, its different everywhere.
