Restaurant explosion vs. TV shows
Several fans of "The Bachelor," "New Girl" and "NCIS" were upset when Kansas City stations interrupted the shows for breaking coverage of an explosion at Country Club Plaza. At least 14 people were hospitalized with injuries; at least one person died in the blast.
More pictures of #plazafire at JJ's Restaurant. We have a crew on the scene: http://pic.twitter.com/IN7pEzkv- Editor's note: Some tweets include profanity.
I get it, it's tragic, but are we STILL talking about the #plazafire ?! Missing #newgirl and #TheBachelor because of repeating facts.

As the author, I did not say your tweet was, in any way, wrong. This is a collection of tweets by people who were upset that live news coverage interrupted scheduled TV shows. How one wants to interpret this story is up to the reader/viewer.more2013-02-26T21:06:55.996Z

If you didn't want it being used, you shouldn't have POSTED IT ON THE INTERNET. Besides that, your opinion, while not technically wrong, is still incredibly selfish and pathetic. The Bachelor isn't worth your time anyway; it's all just scripted, mindless drivel.more2013-02-21T01:12:44.414Z

If their family member was the one missing they would be glued to the television and bitching that NCIS or the bachelor was on instead of the news. You can't please all of them all of the time. So you got to please the masses.more2013-02-20T23:18:37.498Z

They don't care that people could be hurt, or dead. They just want to slump back on their couches and block out the rest of the world with meaningless television shows to distract them.more2013-02-20T19:21:38.251Z
