Right now 12:38 ET, CNN has on its front page, a crash of an airplane that killed 4 people. 6/5/23 [View all]

Front Page news. ?????.....Why? is that Front Page news?

Car crashes that kill 4 people do not get front page national news....Do they? ( on CNN?)

Awful editing in my opinion. Just pointing that out.

......................................Not " National News" in my opinion.

..............................No, I am NOT AN EDITOR OF TV NEWS ON THE INTERNET ........................................................

Probably because it was an unusual situation where the plane flew into prohibited airspace Ocelot II Jun 2023 #1

It does if it flew in restricted space and has fighters scrambling.. TreasonousBastard Jun 2023 #2

Resulted in an emergency national security response with two F-16s scrambled in secure air space? hlthe2b Jun 2023 #3

It is very much national news. It flew right into prohibited airspace in D.C. Ocelot II Jun 2023 #5
