With all the ink spilled, and airtime and pixels that the media have been devoted to covering the private lives of celebrities, political gossip and "human interest stories" (translation: fluff), one would almost forget that , a jihadist strolled to a Seattle, WA Jewish Community Center, and:
- Took a teenage girl hostage at gunpoint
- Murdered one unarmed woman
- Attempted to murder four more unarmed civilians, including one pregnant woman
* - the media has decided, en masse, that this story merits no more attention, and instead will devote whatever page-space, airtime and pixels that such a tragedy would otherwise occupy in the main news sections to other, "more pressing stories," including but not limited to:
- The fact that teenagers who frequently listen to sexually explicit lyrics on their iPods have a higher propensity to initiate sex than those who don't listen to such lyrics (imagine that!!!
;
) - Why Paul McCartney locked his soon-to-be ex-wife, Heather Mills, out of their house ( )
- Janet Jackson's upcoming topless photo for Vibe Magazine ( )
- The morning that pyschotic, race-hustling Congresswoman Cynthia McKinney (D-GA), in a desperate bid, stood on a Georgia streetcorner, singing "disco soul tunes" ( )
- How a Vermont town is wondering what to do with a 102-year-old fire station ( )
By willfully ignorning this startling story - and the fact that it is a continuation of a series of jihadist attacks on U.S.
soil - the media is doing nothing short of denying the threat that militant Islam poses a real and current
to every north American citizen, town and city.
