ignoring all of the protests, rallies, and occupation movements going on around the world? CNN -blam!-ing ran a story on some redditor's picture showing that, according to his image on the box, Cap'n Crunch isn't a real Captain and yet we can't talk for five seconds about the hundreds of thousands of people protesting in Bulgaria, Turkey, and Brazil? Seriously? How much is the Bulgarian Government blowing Ted Turner?
Discuss the current state of media in terms of how shit they are at covering international events.
