What is happening?

Not trying to get too worked up about the media, bros

but today I noticed something very "bloggable" during the Obama religious ritual a.k.a. inauguration coverage
scenario: george w. bush gets off a plane in his hometown in Texas and delivers a speech to the locals.

MSNBC- cuts to Bush's speech for the first maybe 15 seconds and Chris Matthews quickly deems it to be "irrelevant". video shrinks to the corner of the screen and soon disappears

CNN- Not one frame of the speech.

Fox News- Full screen coverage for the entirety of Bush's shout out to his boyz

in the 21st century, an individual's view of the world depends on his choice of mass media outlet
