There's a lot of truth there. But at the same time, the media is giving the masses what they apparently want. Papers are selling, viewers are tuning in. They want to know more, so it is given to them on a silver platter. If one agency refuses to provide the endless stream of coverage down to what the school janitor ate for lunch that day, people will change the channel to a competitor who will. Oh and then there's the gun control issue. America is a young country and still learning that our freedoms come at a cost. Awful things happen all over the world every day. We should be thankful for each peaceful day.
