Twitterverse jumps to the defense of crying Kansas fan
Fans get emotional. It's part of the madness that goes along with the NCAA basketball tournament.
But broadcaster CBS is getting some heat from its viewers over repeatedly cutting to a camera shot of a young Kanasas fan in tears during the last few minutes of the game against Stanford.
Take a look at some of the reactions.

I hate Kansas don't get me wrong. But CBS filming a crying kid is absolutely pathetic. #stopbullying

I don't mind Kansas losing but don't show that poor little kid crying for that long on national tv that's just mean #MarchMadness #CBS

The Kansas kid even has his own hashtag.

Some Twitter users are steering clear of the subject.
