Is it just me, or does anybody really care about the Peterson or Kobe Bryant cases, outside immediate family that is? Cable News has been awash with the stories for months now, reporting every twist and turn, but who cares? I’m not interested in the least, and nobody I know is interested. Am I in a cocoon? Do I not get out enough? Have I not paid enough attention? Out of all the terrible murders out there, why is Laci Peterson’s a matter of national interest? Is Kobe Bryant really that much a celebrity that his rape case merits leaving the sports page? I’m mystified how the MSM decides what warrants wall to wall coverage, and what merits a single mention.
