Well if they keep rabidly covering this kind of crap how are we to know??

Actually there is a lot going on in the world more important than this stupid story, but the distraction is more important than any actual news coverage.

The point is it shoves it to the bottom of the page with multiple subsequent stories covering this spectacle instead of covering actual news.

Why not simply cover the fact that the acting mayor asked for donations to cover the event services such as garbage, crowd control, etc. publicly because the cities budget is already over stretched and officers are on round the clock shifts as are other emergency crews to handle this.

Seems a fair trade to me :dunno:
