I'm listening, with half an ear as I work, to the funeral of the guy killed in hostile fire in Afghanistan, on Fox News. It seems to have turned into a lengthy sermon. It sounds like I'm listening to something on Sunday morning on some double-digit VHF or UHF channel, instead of Friday afternoon on FNC.

I have no objection to such a thing at the funeral, if the family want it, but do the non-Christians among us really have to be subjected to it (yeah, I know, I can switch the channel)?

I just think that funerals are not news, at least not any more. I thought that Barbara Olson's service was beautiful, but I still questioned its being telecast live. We're only making a big deal about this one because there have been so few casualties, and none due to hostile fire, until this one. But if this were a real war, we wouldn't have enough television bandwidth to broadcast all the funerals. The fact that he died is news. I'm sorry for his family, but his funeral isn't.

Could you tell me the name of the songs/music played at barbara Olson's funeral? I have looked everywhere.
