ABC strikes a sour note.


On a recent edition of ABC News they did a feature on underprivileged children whose musical talent made them eligible to play with the New York Philharmonic. We saw these very special children with their musical instruments getting on the bus for the long drive to the demanding rehearsals, performing in front of their proud parents. It was an inspiring and moving feature of children, boys and girls, being immersed in the fantastic world of symphonic music and art.  It was about artistic achievement and amazing skills of these youngsters, that is until David Muir, while interviewing one young boy said in the most annoying, irrelevant and coy fashion,"I hear you also like football." I guess he didn't feel this kid was a completely normal male  individual until he revealing that he also liked sports.
