Media milking

We interrupt this mass media milking of the murder of 32 in Virginia to bring you a special bulletin. We put aside the sensational airing of photographs of a crazy, hammer-wielding murderer to bring you this update. We break in on the interview with a 1962 alumni from Virginia Tech to bring you this special report.

One-hundred and seventy-one people were killed in Baghdad yesterday. One-hundred and seventy-one people whose pictures don't appear on American television. One-hundred and seventy-one people whose tearful relatives aren't being interviewed by Katie Couric. One-hundred and seventy-one people who had lives and family and dreams and hopes as loving and strong and important as the thirty-two killed in Virginia.

We now return you to full coverage of an interview with Fred Fabbenhammer who once drove through Virginia and saw a Korean.
