How do I explain to a 7 year old why a great and decent man like Russert must die, while a vile and traitorous worm like Olbermann is left alive, and possibly to take Russert’s place?
All you really have to do is repeat JFK’s line , which I believe related to why he survived WW2, and others perished-—”Life is unfair”-—kind of sums it up, yet it would be a hard message to have to convey to a kid, who still wants to believe that life is fair.
