I'm absolutely astounded this has not caused more news, discussion or interest.

Perhaps just because the story is breaking?


Mr Mephisto
Most people don't really care. You would have to be 40+ right now to be even aware of it when it happened, and 50+ to be old enough to really been into it.

Its more of a question amoung journalists as a 'who done it' rather than burning on most of the publics mind.

So while some may want to relive the glory years of their political protest days, and journalists will want to relive it, to much of America its only something they learned in history class (and if you went to a public school maybe not even there).

Had it happened 20 years ago it would have been a much bigger story, hell if Nixon were alive it would be a bigger story, but it wasn't and he aint. Any coverage of this will be press driven, not public interest driven.
