Over the past day the Israeli Defence Force has attacked three hospitals in Gaza. Millions (?is that true?) of Americans will turn to CNN.com (as Wolf Blitzer and his incompetent cronies instructed them to do many times during the presidential campaign season even if they were already watching CNN at the same time! What a racket he's got there.)
Anyway, the birds who got eaten up and caused the US Air plane to crash into the Hudson are living up their 15 minutes of page, spewing their charred remains & consequences all over CNN.com frontpage. (This is not only irritating but bad for Brian Paradise's aerophobia, though he is a little relieved that everyone survived a water landing, and that those little inflatable yellow vests aren't just for show!)
After putting on his spectacles and scrolling down the page, your fearless blogger was finally able to find the story about Gaza-- of course there is nothing mentioned about any hospitals in the headline, which reads "Israel intensifies attacks on Gaza City" ("intensifies" is, one must understand, BlitzerSpeak for attacking hospitals and maybe using white phosphorous illegally but who knows or cares?? It's so anti-Semitic to even investigate.)
The Gaza story is ten lines down in the tiny "Latest News" box underneath the plane crash garbage (a survivor called it "miraculous!".. um, the plane crash, not Gaza. Something tells me we're not going to hear a lot from the survivors of the latter. If there are any. And if we do it will be followed by a story three times as long about how some girl in Sderot was "scared.")
Now the best part-- besides the horribly edited Gaza "report" (which cheerleads in the first line about some Hamas figure no one cares about being killed and waits eight paragraphs before mentioning any hospital bombs)-- is the story one above the Gaza massacre: "Iowan: Cold hurts, makes 'skin burn.' "
January in Iowa, who knew it was cold? Thanks CNN, you piece of horse shit.
