Copyrighted Image? DMCA | At approximately 1:07 p.m. on Saturday afternoon, April 11, during the annual Cherry Blossom Festival celebrating springtime in the Nation's Capitol, a 22-year old man took his own life with a gun on the Capitol grounds with a protest sign taped to his hand. According to the Washington Post, the sign read: "Tax the one percent."
Consider the vacuous handling of this story by corporate media. The Washington Post headlined the story with this: "Rhythms of Washington Return after Illinois Man's Suicide Outside Capitol." The message he delivered to his Congress -- tax the one percent -- has yet to be explored by any major news outlet in America in connection with this tragedy.
In the past, when principled people committed suicide, like by self-immolation, the media covered it.
If a 22-year old falls in the Capitol and no one hears his message, did he die in vain? Write about it. |
