One of the few times I agree with U. The line before and after the one U quote defiantly shows the News Media makes no distinction between safe and Unsafe R/C TOY flyers. They could not Sensationalize the NEWS if they did.
What does this statement have to do with anything except to Sensationalize plain and simpleDrone sightings have become increasingly common and worrisome over stadiums, especially during college and NFL games.
Poorly supervised drones and remote-controlled aircraft can pose a safety hazard.
Sensationalism plain and simple
A 19-year-old man was
killed in 2013 in a park in Brooklyn, N.Y., when he
lost control of his remote-controlled helicopter and it struck him in the head.
Let's agree the line about safe operation of drones/rc blurs the line. Fair enough. How is the comment about the heli sensationalized? Is it not exactly what happened? The pilot was killed when he lost control of his heli. They could use different words I guess or restructure the sentence but that one I think is pretty factual. A horrible loss.
