Your guess is as good as mine; I couldn’t speculate on the thoughts of mass murderers. The cynic in me says that shootings no longer represent compelling content to the average consumer, so it doesn’t get pushed as hard.

I haven’t looked up any actual statistics comparing recent mass shootings in the US, so I really can’t say.

Shit, rich people are dying? We better get around to fixing this whole air travel issue asap!

Seriously, it seems like plane crashes are replacing school shootings as the American tragedy-de-jour

I also like, “Israeli bombs strike Gaza”. How did Israel’s bombs get up in the sky? Did they not expect them to fall to the ground and explode?

How about “Israel bombs Gaza”?

Really I’m quite partial to this one.

NYT will always act the apologist for mass-murder if it aligns with US foreign policy. Or beat the war drum (see: Saddam, WMD) if called on to do so.
