Musings on the news
I wake up. I make my coffee and sip water. I sit down at the computer and open Firefox to the New York Times, and then Indymedia. I think that I should see what’s happening outside my little Santa Fe bubble. But when I do, it makes me so thoroughly disappointed that I just want to hide in Facebook or other blogs.
A series of wonderfully depressing headlines:
• Indymedia Journalists Targeted in Ecuador, Five Arrested
• Anti-Immigrant Attacks in South Africa
• 158 Relief Workers in China Are Killed by Landslides
• 2 Weeks After Cyclone, Burmese Leader Pays First Visit to Refugees
How are we supposed to respond to this?
I feel like burying my head in the sand and never reading the news again.
And she once wanted to write for the New York Times, folks.
