"On the Media"
From last weekend's "On the Media":
BROOKE GLADSTONE: What do you think hasn't been covered? What's the story that still isn't being told?
LOLIS ERIC ELIE [New Orleans Times-Picayune]: The great thing about American media is that most of the stories get told, but unless they are told repeatedly, unless you have one media outlet breaking a story and another one attempting to come up with a better day two story, the stories aren't important. I cannot think of anything that has not been reported, but it does not get analyzed and it does not get viewed in the context of the national implications. So I suppose I would say that what has not happened is a discussion of the lessons to be learned for the rest of the country.
