I was anxious to get my newspaper yesterday and see what our local paper had to say about the historic Iraqi elections. I just knew that was one I would save for my kids.

You can imagine my disappointment when there was no headline and the most prominent story on the front page had to do with a local cemetary cleanup complete with color photos.

The closest thing I could find was the article on the far right (symbolic I guess) reading something to the effect "Iraqis line up to vote".

Know the cemetary cleanup is important to those local families who have relatives buried there. But the Iraqi elections will affect an entire nation for generations. And perhaps the future of the entire reagion or greater.

And this is not the first time. Quite a few noteworthy local events of late have been ommitted in favor of articles like "women who scavenge through other peoples trash". Gee sounds like an episode of day time TV.

I know the Town Talk has more resources than the average citizen. Then why is it that we have to go to TV or the internet for truly important news. If it were not for the local busiess advetisements, I probably would cancel the newspaper altogether.
