Ministry of prominent Bahamas pastor to continue after fatal plane crash

Prominent pastor among 9 dead in Bahamas plane crash

The Bahamas ministry of prominent evangelist Myles Munroe, who was killed in a small airplane crash on Sunday, will continue, his close advisers said.

Munroe — a well-known pastor, motivational speaker and evangelist — was one of nine aboard the Lear 36 Executive Jet when it went down as it attempted to land in Freeport Sunday evening, officials said. All those aboard were killed.

Police and fire authorities are on scene and a full investigation is ongoing Monday. The cause of the crash has not yet been determined, though there had been heavy rain across the region. Grand Bahama is about 70 miles east of Florida.

While I neither know nor care whether this particular airplane crash was on the same scale as the horrific one at Lockerbie all those years ago, surely even for the bunch of Angry White Men at FOX News this is uneccesarily callous. I mean, the poor man and his loving wife are dead. Does it really matter what size of a plane crash it was????


Colour me horrified

<start Mr. Obvious alert>
Nobody could hate Faux News more than myself, but the reporter just made a terminology error and meant to say that it was the crash of the "light aircraft," a Learjet 36 (not a "small airplane").
Why report it was a "light aircraft" (so-called "small airplane")?
Typically, the news wants to mention it was a crash of a "light aircraft" since they are traditionally more dangerous and subject to more crashes. Whenever a famous person dies in crash, it is ALWAYS mentioned whether it was a smaller aircraft and a large commercial flight: http://www.toptenz.net/top-10-famous-pe ... -crash.php

Oh..........it was the plane that was small, not the plane crash.

In that case............

I never even noticed that bit. Nice thing about FOX News is that they write the way they think: simply and badly
