QUOTE "I regretfully conclude that the reason most Americans know about Matthew Shepard is because his death was used as a free political commercial by the Left, to advertise their views about this country and their political enemies under the guise of "breaking news".

Has nothing to do with the left or the right. Gay people are killed weekly in America but they do not always make HUGE headlines. It is SADLY the flavor of the day when it ocmes to the media. It is the EXACT same way with kidnappings...murders...rapists...shark attacks...Condit...whatever the flavor of the day is. It is sad...but true. It has nothing to do with the Left or the Right. It has everything to do with where the cameras happen to be...and who happens to be calling the shots on the day in question. News or not...

I seriously doubt there is any help for the media. The only help we can hope for is to get new people in there that have some sort of belief system. And that will only happen one by one.
