It's especially useful to them when lots of reporters are taking time off and D.C., state capitols and city halls are shut down: "If it bleeds, it leads."<br /><br />Those headlines are sensational, in a grisly, tragic way. But remember, they involve a handful of people from among more than 300 million. If you read international news much, it's easy to find stories where all the people of an African village are slaughtered; 300 perish when a ferry boat capsizes in Asian waters; or disease claims hundreds of lives somewhere — on top of all manner of crimes that just don't make the international news wires.S.W.
