The Media and ADD One of the most remarkable examples of the 'established world media' having Attention Deficit Disorder involves the missing flight MH370...remember that? In the most highly radar-ed and studied and militarily high-tech rich area on Earth...the big plane just...vanished and, the Malaysian Government announced that it went the other way, totally, for no reason, to the only place in the world oceans where no one was looking at the time. The information came straight from the Malaysian PM's office. Within a month Obama landed in Malaysia and gave Malaysia a really good trade and military package that no one was expecting. Then the Saudi Royal Family gave the Malaysian Prime Minister a 'personal gift' of $800 million...just because they liked him. I wonder how often they do that? Anyway, all this information came out yet not one media company investigated this rare phenomenon or joined any of the dots. ADD?
