    Reminds me of Joe Jackson’s song – Sunday Papers. If you want to hear about the Bishop and the actress – if you want to hear about the stains on the mattress – you can read about it in the Sunday paper. People seen to be more interested in dirt than real news and the networks capitalize on it. Cheers!

    It's not "importance", it's sensationalism.  Shootings are becoming so common (and seemingly unstoppable) that people are starting turning a deaf ear to them.  However, hearing scandal about someone "famous" ... now, that's ear-tickling.   News agencies (from both sides) know this and thus cater to it.
