| Description: | ON PREVIEW CASSETTE #991799 Shot of airport traffic control tower. Distant shot of boats moving across the water. Shot of a police ambulance pulling into the emergency room parking lot. Shot of priest in a black robe climbing into the back of the ambulance. Shot of priest preforming the last rites on the person in the ambulance. Priest sprinkles holy water on the body. Shot of priest climbing out of the ambulance and closing the doors behind him. Shot of a building that reads "Lutheran Medical Center". Shot of building and sign that reads "Emergency Enterance". Interior of the hospital as a reporter interviews a survivor of the plane crash. It is hard to believe that the reporter is actually interviewing this man. He is still in a state of shock and obviously in a great deal of pain. The man is lying on a hospital bed unable to move. His head has a large white bandage wrapped around it. The man talks about the gory details of the wreck. This is evidence to how truly insensitive the media can be. | |
