How can you say they're ignored while admitting that you can find reporting on them if you look? I find it ironic that people complain about the quality of mass media while simultaneously swallowing mass media's definition of what is and isn't important. If you hate mass media, then you are a person who doesn't need to be spoon-fed news, right? Of course this notion flies in the face of our dear leader, who hates CNN but watches it religiously. He seems to have convinced every far right person to do the same.
