Hmmmm..... I like what they did, but I'm not so sure talking about it was the right thing to do. 

Some members of the WTHR (Indianapolis) staff visited Franklin Township Middle School to eat lunch with a 13-year-old girl who often eats lunch alone.

The student's name is Lonna, and it was her birthday. 

Lonna's mother is a former WTHR employee and she says that her daughter is bullied at school. So, she reached out to the station asking if some of the employees would be willing to help Lonna celebrate her birthday at school.

Six Channel 13 reporters and anchors showed up for lunch to show support for the newly 13-year old.

This is a tough one. I love the fact that the station talent went and helped this girl celebrate her birthday. But, then doing a story about it, makes it look staged and all about us. 

I know it's a tough call. But maybe this is one time the talent should have shown up, helped the girl and then not said anything. I'm not sure doing this story about this poor girl is going to make her life any easier. 

I know that defeats the purpose for the station, but sometimes, the best good deeds are the ones that no one knows about. Like this San Francisco Reporter. 

But that's just me.
