"Perhaps the press is waiting to see who moves on it first-- like a game of chicken. No one wants to be the first to stick their neck out first and posit the idea that this might have been a failed suicide bomber attempt.
But then, that never stopped the crazy-ass press from reported 10,000 dead in NO after Katrina. "
It is important to note that if a person walked out in public and announced they were killing themselves and blew themselves up in what was clearly a suicide, the MSM just MIGHT cover it as newsworthy. They certainly cover enough other worthless human interest stories involving death. The current event, clearly a much more suspicious circumstance, is not touched.
This implies the presence of an invisible hand influencing their decision to black this out, one which transcends their normal feeding-frenzy approach to news. Care to guess what that hand is?
21 is a bit young for the "Angry White Male" rif, but Hinrich met the profile in other respects so I would expect an explosion of MSM coverage any minute now (excuse the expression).
