Luis, this should be frontpage news. Every station should be leading with something like, "Islamic terrorists murdered school age kids by shooting them in the back.." But they persist in calling them militants, rebels, or sepratists. They are none of the above. They are murdering scumbags, who need to be called what they are. And now the EU is demanding Russias side of the story. The fact that the media will not see it the way the Russians do or the way we do here at FR, makes them worthy of our scorn and our ridicule..
It is, I just pulled and quoted the frontpage story from every major news outlet with the exception of FOX News.
"Every station should be leading with something like, "Islamic terrorists murdered school age kids by shooting them in the back.."
Then go write copy for every station in America if you want them to dictate how they should report the the news, but every station has reported this to very fine detail; the perpetrators have been called everything you said, as well as terrorists; the Al Qaeda connection has been mentioned in every story that I read.
Americans are not so stupid that they have to be told every minute detail of every story, so when CNN News reports that Putin knows that the perps have Al Qaeda ties, anyone with a fragment of a working brain should know what he's talking about.
Scorn the media when scorn is called for, but this is not one of those times.
