Okay, I get it, Dick Cheney is the former vice dictator of the United States, but he was through-and-through evil.  He has, since leaving the White House, admitted that the war in Iraq was basically a fraud, and now admits to being a war criminal.  Why isn't this bigger news?

Maybe that's the problem - not enough of us feel like we can make a difference.

Well, I know I sound like I'm blaming the media for everything- which I assure you I'm not, there are multiple factors for that feeling of lethargy and uselessness- but the fact that you can't find a truly unbiased news source, or that every media outlet leaves out major facts- that's huge. A lot of people only have one stop for their news and if that outlet fails to mention something important... that audience stays in the dark.
