Where is the news...?
I swear to god, i'm getting fed up. No disrespect to those whos loved ones were killed but I'm tired of these automatons on every dam channel over analyzing, throwing out every "what if", and every so called expert saying this and saying that about this guy. I woke up and turned on the tv and it was nothing but VA Tech...so I changed the channel to a local station, and wouldn't you know it, they were talking to a guy whos son went there last year and didn't even know the shooter...

What in the hell happend to the news...? I mean come on...the Supreme Court made a decision today about partial birth abortions, and over 150+ people were killed in Iraq today. Where did the news go...?

Why must we be subjected to this non stop over analyzing of an obviously deranged individual.

4. I've stopped watching until we get the news back
Even at the gym, I tried MSNBC for two secs
and just couldn' t stand the breathlessness
...so I watched how trucks were made on the
History Channel instead

5. Cho directly killed 33 - Bush has indirectly killed 655,000
If Cho is a madman, irrational, insane, what does that make Bush?

6. Two weeks of total immersion
in the one story the media wants to cover, last week it was 24/7 Imus this week it's the shootings. Of course the shootings are important but other things are too. Soon they will be reaching the end of having anything new to add, if not for this gun man package today they would have been been repeating the same thing from two days ago.
