Walk Away from bad reporting
What a pathetic report of this event. There's not even a 5 second clip of the hi-light of the event - the finale. Alex Axsen and Bill Swales did a bang up job of a beautiful song called Colored Candles. Everyone was moved, people were in tears. Many were giving both of them hugs afterwards. Just where was your reporter while this was going on? it's like we were at 2 completely different events.
