Shame on fourth estate

Our embassies in the Middle East have been put to flame. Other than on Fox News, the only coverage by the printed press, radio and television has been on a remark by Mitt Romney about President Obama.
Very few words that a contingent of uneducated camel jockeys that in reality cannot be religious as they do not have the education to be able to read and understand a religion has been led by a few radicals into rioting with the local governments backing as the local governments are doing nothing to stop the discontent.
To get the attention of the various countries’ attention, we need to close their embassies in the U.S. until our government and the other governments’ property have been restored to original condition. We need to also consider the halting of foreign aid until the cleanup is accomplished.
Now as far as the fourth estate is concerned, they should all be walking around with their heads hanging in shame until they all go back and get an education in fair and open communication.
