Dueling AJC.com headlines

Posted by Andisheh Nouraee on Fri, Jul 27, 2007 at 3:09 PM

"Falcons go through 'grieving process'"

"Family loses 3 children in week"

Guess which "grieving family" got top billing on the AJC.com page?

One story is a local story that's gone national/international, another story, as sad as it is, is pretty commonplace. This isn't surprising....

I understand your point and am not surprised that the Vick story gets top billing. It's nevertheless disturbing that 'players and athletes kinda bummed out' is bigger news than the tragic deaths of three innocent children. Incidentally, the killer of one of the children has not yet been caught.

Maybe I should start a poetry section on my blog?

Just another example of how backward ass some values are in society. Yesterday, I heard a religious call in show asking for advice for Lindsey Lohan's family. I listened long enough to realize the guy was using it as a device for people to talk about their problems and solutions....to quote Britney Spears ....but dang ya'll!!
