The New York Times on-line has a feature I find quite revealing: their ten Most E-Mailed items. So here we are, faced with serious problems in economic recovery, debt management, education, infrastructure and so on. Meanwhile, the paper is full of Justice Dept. snoops, IRS snoops, Benghazi cover-ups, sectarian violence and Israeli raids on Syria. And the public's confidence in our political leaders is in free-fall.
Today's ten Most E-Mailed ?
1. Germs in our gut
2. Salt in the diet
3. Pastrami
4. The 7 minute workout
5. Mastectomy
6. How to fry chicken
7. Getting kids into college
8. Horses on the farm
9. Yoga for middle age
and
10. Moving to Latin America or the Caribbean
The order changes all the time, but doesn't this tell us our fellow citizens -- at least my fellow NYT readers -- just can't deal with and/or don't want to share reality? Train wreck: avert your eyes!
