We Are All Witnesses. Not Rescuers, Not Helpers, Just Witnesses

Bill Nye, the Science Guy, was making an appearance at USC when he collapsed and was out cold. He then revived after about 10 seconds, joked, sat down, sipped some water, and was taken off the stage. What's interesting, though, is the comment from a student who was in the audience, who noted that when Nye collapsed, "Nobody went to his aid... Instead, I saw students texting and updating their Twitter statuses." Is that what it's come to with this generation? Are people more interested in breaking news on social media than helping people? Is getting a cell phone video of someone dying more of a priority than helping the victim? (Los Angeles Times)
