There is a lot of news that our newspapers and TV stations won't cover. But we might hope that the possibility that one of their own was murdered for getting too close to a sensitive story - this is the kind of news that they wouldn't ignore. Perhaps someone will investigate. A Los Angeles TV station has reported that an LA PD officer received an email from Michael Hastings the day before he died under suspicious circumstances, saying:
"The Feds are interviewing my close friends and associates. Perhaps if the authorities arrive, Buzzflash GQ or HQ may be wise to immediately request legal counsel before any conversations or interviews about our news-gathering practices or related journalism issues. Also: I'm on to a big story and need to get off the radar for a bit."
