Now I know that N Korea talks a lot, but I have not heard a word on this on any of the 3 major cable news channels (NOT saying they didnt cover it, but it would appear it takes a back seat).
I checked all 3 webpages....CNN, MSNBC and FOX...lots of coverage on Farrah Fawcett, Gov Sanford, etc. but only on FOX is there any mention of this N Korea story !
My question is...am I over reacting or should we expect this to get a bit more conversation ?

My guess is the Obama enablers have decided that foreign policy is not Obama's forte, so they steer the news towards domestic issues like Government Health Care, CZARs and the like. I suppose we will need alot of "health care" if they drop a few missiles loaded with nuclear bombs on us.
