QuoteIt was early Saturday evening and I tuned into NPR (National Public Radio) to catch the BBC news. What I thought was a normal evening of listening to the news before heading out to dinner proved to be wrong. It was Sunday morning in Paris and reports were coming in that Diana, Princess of Wales had been in a car accident. The reports were frenetic and the information seemed unclear.

I turned on the television to see what happened and to try to make sense of the numerous reports. The reports varied. Some claimed Diana to be killed instantly; other said she was at hospital. I decided to stay in for the evening to watch the coverage until someone presented an accurate story.

It was late in the evening when the American station ABC reported that Diana had died. I tuned back to NPR on the radio to see if BBC reported the same, sadly they did.
