Sad but also boring. The American media becomes obsessed with the dullest things.

This one I'm perplexed by. I hardly expected this to be controversial.

My comment makes the assumption that this will get a similar level of coverage as the previous lost Malaysian flight.

Do you people think the amount of coverage that previous flight got was appropriate?

What makes this story important or relevant to people outside Malaysia or whatever country most of the passengers are from? Not a whole lot.

I mean, give it 2 minutes like you would give any plane crash. "A plane has crashed over Malaysia. 155 presumed dead. Cause unknown at this time" and then move on to other things.

I can only guess that people are just piling on me regardless of what I say.
