Qua din udtalelse, så findes terroristen, statistisk set, i overflod i vores lands-sammenbindende trafikrør under Øresund. Tankevækkende...som du også skriver.
Jeg kan gi´ dig ret det meste af vejen...og må på grædende knæ endnu engang indrømme:
Store nyheder = seertal = reklame-indtægter = proportionsforvridende nyhedsformidling for ussel mammons skyld.
H. G. Wells - "The Shape of Things to Come"::
"Naturally, and according to the best business traditions, the newspapers hired or sold themselves to the war salesmen. What was wrong in that? Telling the news in those days was a trade, not a public duty. A daily paper that had dealt faithfully with this accumulating danger would quite as naturally and necessarily have found its distribution impeded, have found itself vigorously outdone by more richly endowed competitors, able because of their wealth to buy up all the most attractive features, able to outdo it in every way with the common reader.

It wasn´t that the newspaper owners and the munition dealers wanted anyone hurt. They only wanted to sell equipment and see it used up. Nor was it that the newspapers desired the wholesale mangling and butchering of human beings. They wanted sales and advertisements. The butchery was quite by the way, an unfortunate side issue to legitimate business. Shortsightedness is not diabolical, even if it produces diabolical results."
