MEDIA WATCH: THE GREAT DISCONNECT
Filed Tuesday, December 4, 2007 at 12:00 PM
PUB DEF SPECIAL REPORT
There are a lot of people hurting in the City of St. Louis. Not just struggling to make ends meet, but really struggling — to find shelter, to food for their children.
This is a developing story, which seems to be getting more desperate everyday. But you won’t see this story on the front page on the Post-Dispatch. This will not be the top news story on Channels 5, 4 or 2.
There is a horrible disconnect between our community and those that report on it, and those who are supposed to report to it.
