ABCNews.com Gives Reason Rally Fantastic Coverage!

Just kidding.

In fact, the Reason Rally does not even appear on the ABC News front page.

Just got home from the Rally, and an after-event dinner including several FtB bloggers. I want to do several quick posts on the Rally later today and tonight, but I thought I’d make a quick check of my news links to see what we got.

For ABC News, continuing coverage of the Travon Martin murder was today’s top headline, a news decision I pretty much agree with.

Other than that, nothing.

Sure, it’s difficult to fault them for failing to include the, you know, largest gathering in history of intelligent freethinkers – I mean, considering the shortage of electrons and photons to produce online news stories.

The following stories are included in the roster of pressing news coverage, all considered critically more important – by ABC News, anyway – than Reason Rally:
