Media Whores Unleashed

ABC News posted their list of “the top school shootings” (vote on your favorite!)

FOX News posted “Timeline of Terror”, even though the investigation isn’t done yet.  I’m sure Fox will solve the whole mess on their own.

CNN had some “experts” on asking why there weren’t more guards and a wall around the campus.  As if it were a fortress, not a school.  And “as if” suggesting a guard at every single door of every single building would have been given serious consideration the day before.  20/20 hindsight is wonderful.

MSNBC had an expert on (ex-marine/ex-FBI) complaining that the 3:30 press release didn’t provide enough information and that they should have already stated all the names and timeline.  He watches too much CSI.  Only 5 hours passed since the killings and he thinks it should have been solved by then.

NBC News is running a string of anti-gun angles all aimed (bad pun) at increasing gun control.  Remember that early reports indicate he bought unmarked guns off the street.  Gun control wouldn’t do anything for that (but I’m sure it’ll make them feel good - like Dolphin-Safe tuna cans)

CNBC, keeping the faith in markets, has “Gunman kills 33 at Virginia Tech Campus” as their 4th headline down.  Top story is “Coca-Cola Beats First-Quarter Profit, Sales Expectations”

CBS News web site is struggling to just display a page.  They must be suffering serious budget problems.
