Actually, there were just 30 reported hunting accidents in Texas all last year. So it's pretty uncommon to begin with and when you throw in the fact that he is the Vice President of the United States and has admitted to drinking beer shortly before the accident and that he botched the handling of it afterward (to put it lightly), it's a pretty big story. Is it very important in the grand scheme of things? No, but neither is 99% of what the media normally reports on.
