What news stories shall we cover today?

Remember when a stripper hired to perform at a party of Duke University Lacrosse players in 2006 claimed that she was raped at the party? Sure you do. There were 160 television news stories. All charges were eventually dropped against the athletes.

On the other hand, in 2013, when that same stripper was convicted of murdering her boyfriend, there were only three televison news stories. That is a difference of 5,233%.

Michael W. Chapman reported these figures for CNS News.
