As the father of an adult son living with epilepsy, I am disappointed in Klein's unfortunate word choice in

comparing the stridency of cable-TV news to an "epileptic seizure." I look to TIME to bring clarity and

thoughtfulness to news, not to contribute to the stigmatization of such a misunderstood and underfunded

disorder. Perhaps Klein can take this opportunity to report on the lack of coherent national policy relating

to epilepsy, which affects the daily lives of millions of Americans.
