Only ABC’s Good Morning America did not promote the New York Daily News cover. In fact, co-host Robin Roberts actually pointedly defended the practice of sending thoughts and prayers to victims after a tragedy: "I talked to some family members that we'll share in the next hour and they – when we say we're thinking of them, the thoughts and prayers, it really helps them. They really feel the nation, the country, the world sympathizing with them and that we haven't and we can't become desensitized. We can't become and say this is a new normal."
