THE LESSONS OF BOSTON
So
what will be the monthly flavor of scapegoat now that
crudely homemade bombs are the latest to invade our
cushy national illusion?
The
very week the Senate, as expected, voted down any measure
of background checks in the pursuit of our weaponry,
we have new villains with new devices in which to wreak
havoc.
More
shrieks of horror and glimpses of carnage on jumbled
amateur video played incessantly across television-land,
later joined by the obligatory analysis from "experts"
in law enforcement, national security, terrorist activities,
psychologists, clergymen, and a parade of stunned witnesses.
Tearful tributes from statesmen, politicians, celebrities,
and another fanfare-induced appearance by the president,
interrupted by half-assed reporting about arrests and
suspects - on FOXNEWS it's the "brown-skinned Saudi
running from the scene" and on MSNBC it was TEA Party
Right Wing maniacs protesting tax day.
CNN's
John King, who was amazingly not fired on the spot,
egregiously reported for nearly an hour that there was
an arrest, prompting hundreds of people and media to
converge on the city's courthouse. King, who made a
mockery of the only presidential primary debate he was
allowed to mediate, is the latest poster boy for knee-jerk
uncorroborated showbiz that passes for journalism on
every cable news outlet.
Not
to be outdone, the NY Post, arguably the worst piece
of shit printed on a daily basis since Randolph Hearst
dropped dead, not only reported far more causalities
than occurred, but later slapped two innocent young
men on its front page as guilty.
Shock,
panic, disdain, confusion, grief, racism, and erroneous
innuendo passed off as news; these are the offspring
of what has become an all-too familiar scene of destruction
at the hands of some lunatic. But what is it that we've
learned?
