Big News! Big News?
Before going to work, I was watching CNN this morning as they covered the story of the two American journalists who were coming home after 140 days of incarceration in North Korea. It was certainly a poignant moment, and worthy of receiving the media’s full attention.
So as the story reached it climax with the emotional reunion of Euna Lee and Laura Ling and their loved ones, I spotted a “headline” that was running along the bottom of the screen:
Paula Abdul to leave “American Idol.”
I am the only person in America to find this juxtaposition of news stories somewhat disconcerting?
Big News!
