Plane missing story saturated

Unless you have been liv­ing under a rock you have seen and heard all about a top­ic of media obses­sion.

In fact it looks like the media are in some kind of fugue state, call it a obses­sive com­pul­sive men­tal­i­ty that pre­vents them from report­ing the real news.

The truth is no one knows in the media what hap­pened.

They do not even know if the miss­ing MH-370 flight went in the direc­tion they “think” it did.

Just because some­one entered a course into the nav com­put­er, does that mean they did not re-pro­gram the flight com­put­er after turn­ing off the transpon­der?

No, they do not know any­thing, its all a bunch of con­jec­ture and edu­cat­ed guess­ing.

Yet, the media con­tin­ue to take up real news time with this sto­ry that is not a sto­ry at least not yet.

So, why are they so messed up in over sat­u­rat­ing the news  with this sto­ry?

Were not sure, but it sure seems like with inva­sions going on in Europe, wars in Africa, Prob­lems in Asia and more you would think that the media might have some­thing more to talk about than a miss­ing plane when they have no sol­id con­crete facts to go on. 

How exact­ly does one report on a news sto­ry with­out facts?
