On Marc's Mind: A Modest Proposal
We are in a moment that America is tuned in to world events, and the media is willing to oblige by providing us with hard news instead of the usual celebrity fluff stories. The problem is that our new passion for news may be deep, but it’s not very wide-ranging. If a story doesn’t have to do with the war in Afghanistan or anthrax scares back home, it doesn’t seem to be getting much play. If you want proof, look at the coverage of the shortfall in federal aid to New York. Unless you live around here, you’re probably thinking, "What shortfall?"
