Tuesday 15 January 2008

No news

Today's headline is:

Diana 'said Queen would abdicate' (BBC News Tuesday, 15 January 2008)

Another really pressing issue is addressed in:

Why do US pickets walk in circles? (BBC News Tuesday, 15 January 2008)

As if that is not exciting enough, even the news itself is considered newsworthy:

Clash of Ten O'Clock News Titans (BBC News Tuesday, 15 January 2008)

Apparently nothing more important happened today. Now have a look at:

www.iraqbodycount.org

Under 'Recent events' there is a listing of daily casualties, mostly civilians. For 14 January 2008 it says 'The number of Iraqi civilians killed by US forces in January has now gone up to 23.' But surely that is not as important as Princess Diana's paranoia more than 10 years ago.
