the media dropped election coverage like a hot potato for some good old fashioned terror |
|
this is our national media that can only handle one story at a time.
punditry everywhere...
rampant speculation
our media at it's finest

1. While I agree the media does way too much.. |
|
... opinionizing and speculation and not enough actual reporting, I think objectively this possible terror plot is much more important than election coverage, which is pretty much nothing but empty punditry.

7. I thought they found suspicious devices... |

... in England and Dubai? I want to know what that's about, a lot more than what Sharron Angle is saying to Joy Behar today.
Frankly most of the media coverage of the election is pointless and silly, if not harmful, and anything that pushes that off the screen is good for me.
