... as in "tempest in a teacup", that is. Let me get this straight: for the whole summer, the Most Important Event in America has been a group of Islamic moderates who want to build a community center? On their own land? Without any government support involved? Oh, and they want to build it two blocks away from the former site of the World Trade Center? (and a tattoo parlor, several adult book stores, a McDonalds, and another mosque?)
And the Next Most Important Story is that 50 people in Florida want to burn Korans? (because... what, there's a shortage of witches down there?)
It makes for an interesting postmortem article, anyway. Read a good analysis of the media's part in the whole shindig here....
