The "latest" thing has ALWAYS knocked off the last "latest" thing. Nothing new there...except there are many, many times more outlets to see it/hear it. It is super magnified now.

Ordinarily I am not one who has too much of a beef with the media but I happened to be home later than usual this morning and turned on the TV to the Today show.

Yuk, doing a live remote from the college, interviewing survivors, "...how did you feel at that time, etc, etc..." Interviewing a girl that was a freshman at Columbine and now attends VT - talk about eery coincidence?!

It amazes me they'd put themselves in the postion of being so obviously capitalizing (ratings) on the misery and death of others. Not very happy with them and I usually have no grudge against the typical morning show blather, but this...? No thanks, it was beneath a major news organization (but apparently I am one of few that feels that way)
