I would like to think that the media's irresponsible thrust toward the sensational is all the explanation that is needed. But if the collective actions of corporate mismanagers have cost the US economy many times more loss than the efforts of Al Qaeda, would it not generate a great deal of sensationalistic attention to elevate these mismanagers to the level of "state enemies". Calls for charging them with sedition? Willful economic sabotage in wartime? Wartime profiteering? Why do we hear instead "mistakes, bad judgement, and misdeeds". That does not sound very "sensational" to me. How does the media "miss the boat" on this one? Al Qaeda & Ilk: Cost to US, many billions of dollars. Characterization: "The Evil Ones" MalManagement, Inc: Cost to US, many billions of dollars. Characterization: "A Few Bad Apples" Is this simply "mis-media", or outright collusion? ____tony b____ ------------------------ Yahoo!
