First of all it isn't MSNBC that you were scolding, but an AP report on an MSNBC web page. So, you can't blame MSNBC here. It is an AP story.

Second, the AP has several other versions of the story where they plainly mention the kid was home-schooled.

I saw that the Washington Post doesn't mention the kid is home-schooled, but who is surprised there?

But, just about every other story I saw mentions the kid was home-schooled.

So, your feeling that home schooling is being ignored or slighted in this case doesn't seem warranted.

Sorry to ruin your good "mad on", but I checked into this deal and it seems you are just over wrought with the claim of not mentioning the home-schooling. A little fact checking made your point a little absurd.

You didn't ruin my "mad on"; :) I have never heard that phrase before....MSNBC posted the story; whatever source they had, they are still responsible for the content on their site.

I didn't see them in my google search. Can you show me some of those "several" versions?

I think it is absolutely warranted. I have news on all morning...over three hours, I heard the story three times and the only time it was mentioned was during the 5:00 am hour.

We obviously have different observations.
