Never one to tread lightly – even on the topic of death –
WFAA's Dale Hansen behaved as only Dale Hansen does in his coverage of the
death of David "Kidd" Kraddick, who died on July 27 in New Orleans .
On the August 5 edition of WFAA-TV's nightly news show, Dale
Hansen hosted an interview with the crew of Kidd Kraddick in The Morning, which
is broadcast around the country and locally on KHKS 106 KissFM. Although
Kraddick was host, the rest of the crew has decided to go on with the show.
When he asked what Kraddick's death means in dollar signs,
and when he compared Kraddick's passing to 9/11.
According to culturemap.com, the money comment came up,
awkwardly, as he introduced the segment with crew members Big Al, J-Si, Kellie
Rasberry and Jenna.
"I played golf with Kidd Kraddick (and a lot of poker
too)," Hansen said. "It seems like everything I ever did with him
cost me money. But Kraddick's death could be costing a lot of people a lot of
money."
His next trip down the rabbit hole was his evocation of the
images of 9/11.
"After 9/11, every comedian, the Lenos and the
Lettermans, felt like it was awkward to laugh again," Hansen said.
"This morning, when you're trying to do the show without Kidd Kraddick,
was it awkward to laugh again?"
