Why does there have to be an agenda or purpose?


I guess you'd have to ask the news media that question.

Supposedly, when a dog bites a man, that's not news. Man bites dog, however, is. Because it's not something that's regularly reported.

Why wasn't the story presented as such? We've been hearing for months about how unpopular President Bush is. Here's a situation with evidence to the contrary, and all that can be focused on is some Italian news agency's claim his watch was stolen. If not for that claim, I can pretty well guarantee you would have NEVER seen any video of that crowd greeting him.
