Like.
It’s interesting how in some ways, the media’s lack of coverage of the story has become the story itself.
Evil must be confronted before it can be stopped.
JDC, maybe part of the lack of coverage, in addition to not associating much with poor and/ or minority women that would have been Gosnell the Snipper’s patients… is because the editors know if a story is big enough there have to be editorials.
The text bubble above their scratched heads should read, “oh, crap! Who do we blame for this one?”
You’re right JDC. I seem to be seeing a lot more stories reporting on the reporting than reporting on the case.
The media have collectively refused to cover a big story, a story with all the facts being aired in an easy place to gather them (i.e., in a courtroom, with benches). But then the public clamored for coverage. Now the media big-shots have spent the weekend collectively apologizing and trying to catch up, getting ready to cover the trial when it resumes on Monday.
As far back as I can recall, this phenomenon is unprecedented. That’s why this story is news, before we even start talking about Gosnell.
And to think the same mindset whining about Gosnell was the same as the ones who whined when the media covered the My Lai massacre.
I wasn’t alive then, Merit, and I’m pretty certain you have no crystal ball that would tell you exactly how I would feel about any given happening in the news decades before I was born.
You’re really working overtime here trying to change the subject from Gosnell, aren’t ya?
I was alive then, and My Lai was as huge a story as the Manson murders and Watergate. And the only ones saying it shouldn’t have been covered must have been in private Veterans’ get-togethers.
There’s no excuse for the Gosnell case not to be ten times as covered as the Jodi Arias trial.
