    Default Gone (and forgotten?)

    I note that the fate of Malaysian flight MH370 has ceased to be of interest to the news media.

    So that would indicate that such an event is only newsworthy for 21 days.

    A 'private' briefing for relatives was held yesterday. Probably still newsworthy - In Camera

    It does seem that old news is no news for the modern media.
    It will make headlines again only if something sensational happens.

    Air pollution is todays buzz.

    I still see stuff about it on Yahoo! News regularly. I don't do TV news.

    Latest here is the Ft. Hood tragedy, it gives me the skeevies as I live very close to a military base. Good thoughts and prayers going out to all those involved.

    Don't forget the tragic massive landslide over here in Washington State. So very very sad.
