a comment to a friend who felt overdosed on Winehouse in the news

'News' is product. Yet people discuss it as if it is an objective sample of current reality.

But me, I suspect that the massacre portrayed at the start of the fiction movie "Slum Dog Millionaire" is even more important than what just happened in Norway.
