Virginia Tech and a sidenote on the media...

As you all know, Virginia Tech just had the worst shooting in U.S. history. This is horrible and I don't have to remind you that it is. These 33 who have died have also affected pretty much all of America and even the South Korean government.

The reason I would like to post on this is that I want you to think about how horrible you feel about this and think about this. In one day over 100 people died and this wasn't state ordered either. Yet, this had little affect on us. There was not much news coverage, probably because either we've gotten use to it, or frankly we don't care because its not close enough...or maybe we even hate Iraqis.

On the same note, here was MAJOR coverage over this whole Don Imus hoopla. But was anyone talking about this? Which one do you think is worse?
