Any time his 6-year-old son or 5-year-old daughter walks in on Jon Klein watching CNN, he quickly changes the channel. The CNN U.S. president knows better than most the conflicting agendas of news organizations and parents during tragic, disturbing stories. The massacre of 32 people at Virginia Tech last week was a particularly vivid example.
