I plead my innocence

Another episode of how today's media and journalists use unnecessary adjectives and verbs to describe a common or uncommon event. During times of war which seems to be an every day occurence these days there is always the headline of how many died. This is further expanded by describing the elimination of the terror inducing count followed by 'amongst the dead were 20 innocent bystanders'. Now first of all how is it that these bogus journalists figured that they had an exact count of the bystanders? Did they count them in person? Second, more importantly who told them they were innocent? Frankly I am appalled by this rampant branding of individuals with no prior knowledge. In that same report they continue to say that the identities of the dead were not known and will not be revealed till investigations are complete. I mean duh? If you don't know who died how do you know of their innocence. Frankly a sociopathic serial killer who happened to be taking in the action by chance may be pissed off (if one can be posthumously) that he was considered innocent. Also what's with this bystander nonsense? What about those that were 'sitting' for a cup of coffee and had their brains blown out before they had sampled their brew or spilt it on their volition? Do they not get counted among the bystanders or bysitters? Also who invented bystanding? I thought it was standing by? Are there Bysitters? Bysleepers? Frankly all these people that died went bye bye so to keep saying by-this and by-that is pointless. I simple disclosure that reads - there was loss of life - would explain the situation abundantly instead of all the hysteria and sensationalization. However weird this blog sounds trust me I am just an innocent byblogger.
