There was an event that happened this past weekend.  Protestors against the US involvement in Iraq marched on Washington and it was led by some 50 or so ex-soldiers who served in Iraq.  I wanted to find out how many showed up,  as I would have had I been younger, and had to really hunt for a story on the protest.  I found one that said "thousands" of protestors showed up which could mean anywere from 2 to 900 thousand. 

I thought there would be a little more coverage since Britney, Lindsey, and Paris seem to have temporarily quited down and then there it was.  The story of a march on washington was overshadowed by the important news story of whether a 60 year old ex football player was, or was not,  guilty of another crime once again. 

I guess inquiring minds really do want to know.
