Blind America: Pretty much the pits...

Okay, this has nothing to do with nothing, but...

This is the quality of mainstream media news bits -- what they
think is "news" at this hour.

It cann't get much worse:

WP: Sen. Clinton delays renewal of key AIDS law
http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/14473426/

Study: Even a few extra pounds are risky 
http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/14471833/

Alhough a creepy, cool story -- still just schlock:
Body parts harvested in North Carolina are recalled
http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/14473165/

Herpes infections down, but are still worrisome
http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/14468550/

..etc.


MSNBC should be ashamed.

Real news:

Also, to MSNBC's credit, they finally picked up thsi story, too.

Sorry, just had to get that off my chest.

It's just shameful at times.
