Not particularly concerned with whether hours-long, sustained torture and killing of a helpless little couple who couldn't fight back was "randon."
What they did to the little girl was beyond savagery. As though there was something deeply personal in it.
Compounding it was that the media did its damnedest to ignore it.
Then a small newspaper in Miami reported on it over two weeks later and that coaxed outfits like CNN to cover it, so as not to lose their credibility. Which they've managed to do since that time.
Saw it by accident on CNN because of a visit to Easst Jefferson Hospital.
Still didn't see it on any of the local-yokel stations.
But we've had managed news since Hearst.
