The Center of the Universe is Not New York City...

Neither is Los Angeles. So where, you ask, could it be? Judging from the CBS news coverage for the last couple of days, it must be wherever a big-name CBS reporter happens to be. While I agree that it's terrible that a reporter and her crew were wounded in Iraq recently, the story certainly shouldn't be the lead. Innocent people are hurt in Iraq every other day. Why cover a reporter's injury with such high priority when there are simply too many other stories with significant economic/societal implications?
It seems that the CBS 'eye' looks squarely in the mirror before seeking out the news of the day.
