I think that would go from legitimate news reporting to whatever it's called when you just want an excuse to luxuriate in hating someone.

Maybe she's a worthless drunk shitbag, maybe she's just not all there and doesn't believe or really understand the problem.

I don't think it matters too much except when I want to use it as ammo. If she was religious, and I am not, awesome vindicating example for my side I can pull out the next time I want one.

Well I don't like how much I would like that, so I don't think it's very valid, and maybe it's correct that they don't go all "let's lift up this rock and gawp at the ugly bugs all crawling around in there".

Maybe they have no choice. Maybe the police and hospitals carefully don't disclose anything like that for exactly that reason.

I think it is possible to report someone's stated reasons for something incredibly stupid without judgment. In fact, compassion depends on listening to what people say about themselves.

It also matters for judging how the system treats someone.
