Hey ABC, here's a political cartoon you should attach a (sic) to...I am sure Mr. Wallace would appreciate the publicity.

Monday's
"Good Morning America" focused on the death of Army Specialist Dustin
Donica of Texas, believed to be that 3000th serviceman lost in Iraq.
Narrating the segment, ABC's Jonathan Karl stated: "The MySpace page he
left behind bears the tributes of those whose lives he touched." The
screen then displayed the message [shown larger-than-normal here for
clarity's sake] from one of those friends:
"You were one of my best friends and I'll never forget you. All my prayers go to your family and I'll see you again." (sic)
Does traditional religious belief strike ABC as so odd or erroneous as to require a snide little "sic"?
Adding
religious insult to mortal injury in its coverage of the 3000th US
service-person to die in Iraq, ABC seemed to suggest that there was
something odd or erroneous in the expression of a traditional belief in
the afterlife.
