The Arkanssouri Blog.: Amazing. And not in a good way.

Amazing. And not in a good way.

It amazes me what passes and doesn't pass for news.

You'll recall yesterday I alerted you to the fact that mass murderer of schoolgirls Mitchell Johnson was caught on a drive with guns, drugs, and a guy who shot his father with a crossbow in the car. He was, of course, arrested.

Even knowing Johnson's history as a mass murderer of schoolgirls, the authorities granted Johnson bond and released him.

You would think that this would be BREAKING NEWS ON CNN stuff.

I did everything I could to alert everyone from Drudge to Fox to Nancy Grace to Brian Williams to Rush Limbaugh to Glenn Beck about it.

I checked Techorati this morning. No links to my post about it. Only one other link to the KAIT story. Google News has a few links, but nothing national.

No interest in it at all. Not a nibble. Except for an automated response from NBC Nightly News, not even an acknowledgement that I sent it to them.

Too busy covering important things like the pissing match between Rosie, Trump, and Barbara Walters, I guess.

If there are no photos or videos of attractive young girls to show, the crime won't make the news.

Unfortunately, those young girls were murdered before they would make good pictures for the media.
