Paul caught a lot of shit for his reaction. I have the news video downloaded on my comp. Try Limewire to download it. He really does show no compassion. I can't tell if it's shock or not caring. He just says,
"Boy, what a drag. Oh well, Cherri-o!"
He seemed uncaring but who knows. My guess is he had just had some big argument with John right before he died. But towards the end of his life, when he was taking care of Sean, John and Paul didn't talk too much. The rest of the Beatles only released written statements.

Yea, I remember seeing that quick interview with Paul after John's death. It was puzzling for sure.
Of course it's only a guess, but I'm assuming it was more shock or something. Even more than the public, he had to have been deeply affected. I can't believe he meant to be as cold as he sounded!
