If you don't say it,we won't know it


It is disbelieving that many people in the United States know that Timothy McVeigh, the terrorist who blew up the Alfred P. Murrow Federal Building in Oklahoma City in 1995, was Baptist. The explosion killed 168 people, but none of the news stories said "Baptist Bomber" Timothy McVeigh, perhaps because his faith was not a factor in the attack. Regardless of motives, had he been a Muslim, everyone would have known, because it would have received extensive coverage in the print and electronic media (Emery, 2008).

Sometimes I do think that it's the media's fault. Pfft.

By the way,do you know that a catfish has 20,000 tastebuds?

Bet you don't.


Bye.
