I've always wished it were possible for news channels to avoid the 
temptation to allow one story to take over and crowd out all the REST 
of the news.  

Sadly, even the deaths of other notable people get short shrift at 
times like this.  In the absence of Michael Jackson's death, Farrah 
Fawcett, Ed MacMahon, and Robert S. MacNamara would be getting the 
attention they deserve.

Likewise, the deaths of Frank Perdue Prince Renier of Monaco were 
overshadowed by the death of Pope John Paul II.

The death of Aldous Huxley went unnoticed because he happened to die 
the same day as President Kennedy.

And, the most unfortuate of all (to me anyway) is that Groucho Marx 
didn't get the TV tributes that were his due because he had the bad 
luck to die three days after Elvis.
