I fail to see how the US being directly responsible for the deaths of 35 000 civilians is = a failure of media coverage in Darfur.
Yes the international community should act in the region. But the only reason to bring up Sudan in this particular thread, it seems to me, is to draw attention away from failures elsewhere.
I am not trying to draw attention away from our responsibility. It is more of a shot at a bias in the media. And I am not talking about the "liberal bias". The bias I see is like when the media spends all their time on the Natalee Holloway case when lots of people go missing every day.
I really don't want to take away from the problems going on in Iraq but I feel the media tends to go on feeding freenzies where they spend every hour focusing on a small subset of stories. This isn't the place to talk about this, I am sorry I brought it up but this is the like the 10th time I saw this in the last 24 hours.
