It's the main news at nearly all web news sites. Along with the upcoming
hurricane (it's
larger than the whole state of Florida) and Clinton's bypass surgery. The next
few days will
be dominated by these events.
The Republicans must be a bit annoyed; their convention quickly became
meaningless news.
The Russian school attack shows that al Qaeda doesn't need airlines or dirty
bombs. They
could just as easily take a school. Last week, the Chechens blew up two Russian
airliners,
but that didn't have much news impact.
The Florida hurricanes are quite a news event. The media loves those big boys.
Lots of great
video. And there's a bit of schadenfreude to see Florida get whacked over and
over again.
