Priorities

So... yesterday was a big day in news. You just have to open up the front page of CNN, MSNBC or Fox news and you can see a couple of big stories. Olympics are starting, and we have a swimmer who could win eight... yes EIGHT gold metals. Wow.

John Edwards admitted to having an affair. But the lovechild isn't his. Or so he says.

Beneath those headlines, there are some other... minor topics. Like Russia going to war with it's neighbor. Little things like that.

Seriously... a sex scandal outdoes an actual war for top story? What the fuck.

Because news has become entertainment and there is nothing entertaining about a war that no one from here is fighting. Because the media thinks our society is completely myopic and unfortunately most Americans can't look past their nose and recognize the ramifications of anything that happens in the old Soviet Union.

I saw that bit of news, too, and it scares the crap out of me.
