A question about Ted Kennedy

How come everyone in the media is bringing up the car accident Ted Kennedy had when that woman died and did so countless times before his death.

But the very first time I heard about Laura Bush's car accident where a man died, was on Family Guy.

The media should be talking about the good he did throughout his life, with the bad stuff just being a part of his life story, not the other way around.

Im guessing when laura Bush dies, no one will bring up her car accident.

1. I hope no one does bring it up when she dies.

They both had accidents.

Both were tragedies.

Neither should be mentioned when the driver dies.

3. The same reason nobody brings up

Harry Whittington every time Prick Cheney's name comes up. The media SHOULD be doing quite a bit more than they have been doing. They are, however, smart enough not to bite the hand that feeds them.
