Hiding the Heroes

If a teacher in Littleton, Colorado (of all places) courageously stopped a shooting rampage at a public school, you'd think it would be pretty big news, right?

The answer is "no".   As we all know, it's only newsworthy if a shooter tallies a successful bodycount.

Well, even if you haven't yet heard of David Benke, he's a math teacher who courageously stopped a  shooting rampage at a public school.

The media’s selective attention is pretty baffling. For instance, what’s with the intense fascination over the killer whale? That was a blurb at best and yet it’s all I’ve heard for the last three days.
