Apparently they missed the shooting at the Empire State Building. Fail. But it's the Onion, fail is expected. |

DrProfessor, that's true. The media has been ginning this all up. For example, outside my apartment a while back there was a triple homicide - out on the street. There were very few reports on it. It wasn't an exciting story - probably because it was just another 3 gangsters who got killed.
But what annoys me most about the media reports is when they say "semi-automatic pistol". It's like....duh? |

@andrew155--it seems to me that the recent trend in "spree shootings" is indicative of how famous the batman shooting got. The media loves nothing more than a good tragedy to ride out.
Remember the "zombie breakout" earlier this summer? Same thing. Big story breaks, then the news dredges up any remotely similar story to nab viewers. |

"A little to early"
"called it too soon"
"Looks like they spoke too soon"
If you read it, it says "Never mind", below. |

It seems to me that the recent trend in spree shootings is indicative of some sort of civil strife and unrest manifesting itself. This isn't normal stuff. |
