The cool thing about having your own blog is you can write about anything. So what’s on my mind at the moment has nothing to do with photography….but it should be important to everyone.
I use a Google home page, and every morning I check the news headlines, weather, etc., right from that page. I get news feeds from NY Times, MSNBC, CNN, and BBC. Today I was extremely disturbed by what I noticed. The top headlines from all of the America-based media was about Normal Mailer’s death, or the stage-hand strike on Broadway. But for the BBC, the top healine today is about the US troops who were killed in an Afghan ambush.
After refreshing the page a few times the news of American deaths has finally reached some of the American new media, but it’s still not the leading headline.
Am I the only one who’s disturbed by this?
