This is just wrong on SO MANY levels. A BBC broadcaster named Michael Buerk is under fire for saying possibly one of the most insensitive things we’ve heard about Liam Payne‘s death — coming from a journalist, no less!

Of course, we all know how heartbreaking and tragic the former One Direction member’s passing has been. His family, loved ones, and fans around the world have been mourning.

We mean, an entire generation lost one of their idols and a child lost his father. It’s no matter to take lightly! It’s devastating.
