West Wildwood - On May 18, eight students and two teachers were slaughtered in a Texas high school. ABC, CBS, and NBC offered coverage at normal news hours. Cable news had considerably more coverage. Then, on May 19, we had this fantasy wedding (nice couple surely). I counted 13 stations, including ABC, NBC, and CBS that offered four to six hours of coverage. If we missed this fiasco, we could get later coverage as a repeat. I guess slaughtering people is not as newsworthy as a wedding.
