Why in the world is the story about the Vice President's hunting accident so important? The guy he hit is ok. The Vice President was doing something entirely legal, unless you think hunting without a $7 permit is a mortal sin. But the press simply will not let it go. They do not cover what is happening in other parts of the world. How much coverage have they given to Hugo Chavez or to the problems in Tibet, or to the Sudan, or to the murders of Christians around the world? BUt they want to examine this story six ways til Sunday. The declines in viewership of network news should not be a surprise. Nor should the drops in readers of newspapers. What would motivate anyone to want to follow this nonsense?
Quick, which merited more attention at the time - the Hillarycare task force and its refusal to disclose anything, the Rose law firm records or this?
