NPR was all over this on my commute. I changed the channel as I thought to myself? Why are you so breathless about an investigation into a guy molesting a few boys over decades at one of thousands of schools in a state far removed from mine?

More importantly, why do you think I would waste my limited time learning about that when there are things that actually MATTER to me and can impact me directly going on in other places in the country and the world.

But the other station was playing one of my favorite oldies, so it’s all good.

I have a somewhat different view of things. Personally I think learning about what amounts to an organized conspiracy to cover up the rape of dozens of children over a period of decades perpetrated by one of the most "respected" colleges in America impacts my life somewhat.

Maybe that's because I have a kid who will be of "college age" soon.
