An interview with a congresswoman about the NSA tas force gets interrupted for a breaking story about Justin Bieber.

Oh my.
The blood-dimmed tide is loosed, and everywhere
The ceremony of innocence is drowned;
The best lack all conviction, while the worst
Are full of passionate intensity.--Yeats

You didn't notice that Bieber is still front page news at the Fox news site? (Just like Duck Dynasty and Honey Boo Boo used to be)

I suspect he's front page news nearly everywhere but I didn't notice Fox breaking away from an otherwise important interview to bring us that breaking news.

What colour knickers was the congresswoman wearing?
If there is a single truth about Magic, it is that nothing on earth so efficiently evades it.

Urgh. tommy, said congresswoman is 68 years old. Dunno how it is with your elected officials, but over here, the vast majority, while they may be fine people, are not people you'd want to imagine in their underwear.

First you complain that we Americans don't care about Canadian news, then we run a breaking story about a prominent Canadian and you're still not happy.

If this were played upon a stage now, I could condemn it as an improbable fiction.

The reality is that the news networks are in the business of advertising other facets of their owners' business interests.

Movies, concert tours and sporting events are news only insofar as they generate income for the media conglomerates.

Amazing how any mistakes made by your favorite outlets can be blamed on FOX NEWS.

Then you complain when you are called partisan. Go figure.

Not wanting to stop a petty turf war, let's look at a few news sites.

http://www.foxnews.com/
http://www.msnbc.com/
http://www.cnbc.com/
http://abcnews.go.com/
http://www.cbc.ca/
http://www.bbc.co.uk/

At the time of posting, all except the second have entertainment on their main page. The first, fourth and fifth all have a Bieber story on the main page.

No surprise. Everyone is reporting it. The video was a little surprising, and somewhat comical, because they interrupted their ongoing interview as if Pearl Harbor was being attacked or something.

MSNBC must have recognized their error as they have now added it to their front page.
