Another "top story" look, this from UPI:

A survey of 1,500 adults in November by LexisNexis, made available to Networking in advance of its release later today, indicates that the most talked about news stories of 2005 included Hurricane Katrina, with 97 percent of the vote; the temporary spike in gas prices, with 88 percent of the vote; the war in Iraq, with 83 percent of the vote; the tsunami in Asia with 62 percent of the vote; the terrorist attacks on London, with 36 percent of the vote; the U.S. Supreme Court nominations, with 35 percent of the vote; and the forced dehydration of comatose Terri Schiavo, 33 percent.

Thanks for another 'top story', 8mm.
Perhaps if it were written 'disabled' instead of 'comatose' it would be more accurate and the percent would be a higher.

This was a terrorist attack on Terri/her family/Florida citizens/American citizens under the guise of law, such as the Al Queda/Koran. Instead of the terrorists 'within' meeting 72 virgins, they are given 'awards' and applause by their enablers. Just as ridiculous. Terrorists always want a 'payoff' for doing a dirty deed.
