Not a friendly way to do it

“An experienced caver who was trapped underground has been named”, the TV newsreader told us in the same manner as naming and shaming a really nasty criminal. A highly unfortunate choice of words to be sure. And will the name mean anything to people who aren’t into caving? Probably not.
    Which means that all the effort that went into tracking down this bloke to his hospital bed was a waste of licence-payers’ money. But hey, there’s lots of that.
