If it Bleeds, We Reads?
I’m not a regular L.A. Times reader or basher, but here’s the entire list of stories in the “Los Angeles Times – California/Local News” capsule of my MyYahoo! page at this very moment:
“Trial begins in slaying of yacht owners”
“Counselors respond to killings of Porter Ranch family”
“Father kills family and himself, despondent over financial losses”
“Long Beach mother convicted in fatal stabbing of teen”
“For burned illegal immigrants, a long road to recovery”
Something is sick here, and I think it’s us.
