Bearing Witness
Everything is ever present. There was a time when we would not be watching live coverage of events. The world was not always with us.
We would learn of somethings–no matter how horrific or shocking– the next day. Or, at least, later. On the 11 o’clock news.
Breaking news
Life would not intrude with breaking news constantly. If we were informed of things happening now, it would be in the form of a newscaster’s announcements. We were not witnesses.
