Priorities

The awful shooting in Tuscon, Arizona was a horrendous tragedy. The Mail listed the facts at the top of its article:


  • Six killed and 13 injured in Tucson shooting
  • Federal judge and 9-year-old girl among dead
  • Giffords 'able to follow simple commands' after brain surgery
  • Heated political climate blamed for tensions 
  • Gunman to appear in court charged on five counts
  • CCTV image released of 'second suspect'

Rightly they kept the most important (if that's another word for inane) aspect of the story for the headline:

American politician shot in the head by gunman who left six dead is cousin of Gwyneth Paltrow



Well first cousin once removed, but it's close enough.
