No news please, we're American
95 people dead in a mosque bombing in Iraq, including a cleric who was a potential bridge between the occupying powers and the people. So what does ABC's "serious" news program Nightline cover? The 25th anniversary of that film chronicle of drunken college debauchery, Animal House. A sly commentary on Dubya's college years at Yale, perhaps? Or just a long holiday weekend? Perhaps the effort of spending 6 months straight covering the Lewinsky affair in 1999 is still taking its toll on tired hacks. No time for messy news about furriners.
