Blog stage 4

Deep in the bowels of the news I found this lingering at the bottom. I think what is most sad about all of this is what little attention it has gotten. I think that the author is reaching out to most people in the world. Right wing, left wing-- doesn't matter. This is some f'ed up stuff.

Genocide and hate running free in the Central African Republic, and top three headlines of Google News include "2 accused of tossing items over White House fence", "NFL draft caucus: Who is the most pro-ready prospect in the draft?", and "Snapchat, FTC Settle over deceptive practices". WHO CARES? 

This country is not only facing genocide, but the fragile economy, poor security, and all but demolished healthcare system has left most citizens to die and/or fight for their lives. 

And we're over here bitching about how our 4G internet doesn't work in town, Miley Cyrus's tongue, and/or how offensive that Duck Dynasty guy is. 

We need real news in this country.
