Media fun

Ah, the American media (or at least the BOston Globe), where large-scale terrorist attacks in foriegn countries are relegated below-the-fold on the front page beneath further talks of gay marriage, but when the same foriegn country threatens to not toe the US partyline that makes the main headlines.

On a happier, or at least more amusing note (and I really wish I had a scanner for this), a WSJ graphic about the Bank of America/Fleet deal had a graphic with the headline "Pounded and Probed" and included to bank officials with odd grimaces (possibly of discomfort?) on their faces. Definitely had to be seen to be fully enjoyed, but I got a good laugh out of it.

We live in a bizarre country. We freak out about gay marriage, but humor surrounding forced sodomy is funny. To just about everyone.

Strange, no?
