"Well, so far it's been on NPR this morning, made the front page of the metro section of the L.A. Times, and it's on the main page of the ABC News and CNN websites, and on the National News page of the Chicago Tribune. It's on the AP, as your post proves. Figure it will make the national newscasts tonight. "

That was my point as well. It _is_ national news, so the "no gun--no story" business is bogus. There was no gun, yet the story is getting wide circulation nationwide, and even internationally. But, hey, I'm an "ignoramus" according to the poster, so what the heck do I know?

It's something you see all the time on FR. Somebody posts a news story, then claims that the press is ignoring the story. "Look! See this news story? Proof that the media is covering up this story!" Usually, like this, it's a local crime story. Some people see conspiracies behind everything.
