No Empathy or Sympathy

Exactly, except YOU are a crippled talkshow host and I am not. Hey, I have an idea! Why not do an episode on why the AI works now when it didn't before? Oh! To keep the guy who did it from being more successful that you and it might implicate you in burying a story that would have prevented a school shooting? Wow! You're clearly the good one and he is the bad one.
Hym "Hey! I have no empathy or sympathy either! Good thing they need me for the AI and people like having alive kids! Hey, did your former employees press charges from sexual battery yet? Because they should do that."

selfish sympathy

Regretful soothing words dat you administer to someone else to supposedly make him feel better about a situation, but in reality you merely feel sorry for YOURSELF.
A classic "selfish sympathy" example, from an old "Peanuts" comic:

Schroeder, in exasperation at Lucy's pushy "over-attentiveness": Do you know what Beethoven never had?!
Lucy: What?
Schroeder, rantingly waving his arms above his head: Beethoven never had girls hanging on to his piano and bugging him about giving them presents!
Lucy, mildly shocked: He DIDN'T?! (pauses to ponder this fact) Poor Beethoven!
