They will report on Ferguson like it is the only issue we are currently dealing with in the world today - not sure if it is an attempt to stir the racial tension in this country or what the hell they are thinking.
Nothing more than the media managing what the public should be focused on, hence away from. While the world is burning around us the focus is on "local" news. The politicians are fully aware of the very, very, VERY short attention span of, unfortunately, too many Americans.
For example....midterm election message? Mandate? What about the deterioating infrastructure of the USA? What about the millions who have given up looking for a job?

The whole issue of immigration executive orders is nothing more than a beligerent grand stand play which also keeps everyboy's eye on the ball the powers that be want front and center.

And far too many of we the people just follow the pied pipers tune to oblivion!
