media overkill kicks in massively with DC killings. yes it's sad but.....

quite a few ppl have been shot in DC this year and there was no mass hysteria by media, or even a mention at all on most media outlets.

watching MSNOW you'd think the president AND half the cabinet had been blown away.

Social media is AWASH with media interns posting heartfelt statements, from every politician in the country and possible some from Mars.

Now they're having to walk it all back because the 2 victims are actually alive and critical, not dead
