This is being ignored by the media. This is shocking stuff. Just reading the article you have to envision what drove these kids to flee, barefoot to get away. There is not much in this article, the details must be even worse.

Thousands of kids are abused each year -- exactly why is this supposed to be newsworthy outside the local area?

No, it is Bush's fault! If only these two loving lesbos had been allowed to marry by a fairy hating state, these children would all be Rhodes Scholars. Lesbos are superior parents and must get whatever they ask for. This story is so atypical that the old timees, left wing media may properly disregard it. Using the CNN-Iraqi prac tice, if they published it, children in other lesbo homes might be badly treated.

Too many components of the story that contradict the media's PC worldview. Hence, blackout.

Doesn't look as if they missed too many meals. Also, Alice looks like she has a koala bear sleeping on her head.

My sister-in-law took in a foster child from a family such as this. The mother was a drug addicted lesbian who sold her body for drugs. The state gave the baby back to the mother when she got out of rehab. That happened several times before the state refused to allow permanent adoption by the foster mother.

Looks like it got local media coverage. This kind of stuff happens everywhere. Such stories, where the kids are not hurt or killed, rarely make more than local media.

It's not a blackout. Frankly, stuff in Akron is rarely of interest to anyone outside of OH. I've been there. Won't be back.
