When reporting or commenting a serious incident like the grotesque sexual assault of a innocent child resulting in her death, do NOT do the following:
- read the account of the incident with an upbeat tone of voice, more appropriate for a movie review than an account of a serious crime
- accompany the account of the incident with upbeat jazz music.
The above happened as I was listening to Radio24 in their late night/early morning show the evening after news reports confirming that the body in the bag found in PJ was that of Nurin Jazlin Jazimin came out.
It was obviously not intentional, but please just listen to your own show and hear for yourself how callous it sounds. As I was listening in during my drive back home, I truly shouted aloud in anger at the superficial and ignorant way the topic was being presented on the show.
