Yeesh.
Iran is roiling with political protest. A major offensive in Afghanistan is putting more US troops in danger than ever. An area in China that's three times the size of Texas is convulsing with ethnic/religious violence. Honduras just had a coup. Obama is having historic meetings with Russian leaders to bring us out of the second cold war. The pope wants to consolidate the global economy (like it's not, already). Benin and Brazil are about to be flooded off the map. Koalas are drinking from bikers' water bottles (and if that isn't a sign of the apocalypse... okay, at least it's REALLY rare). And what do we get on the news?
Eight solid days of Michael Jackson.
RIDICULOUS. It's no wonder the rest of the world laughs at us as ignoramuses.
