Default Just another sign that America is getting dumber

Shocking that Americans know so little of national and world news and events, isn't it?

Here are the top-6 stories based on the number of times read/clicked on the Seattle PI's web site today. Keep in mind that the latest in world, national, and state news is front and center on their web site. And some sort of Presidential event took place from what I heard.

1. Conservative group targets 'pro-homosexual' SpongeBob video
2. Off the Wall: What do we really know about Mike Hargrove?
3. Woman gives birth to giant baby
4. People in the News: Ty has an extreme day with appendix makeover
5. Sele returns home to Mariners
6. Jumbo squid wash onto California beaches

Pathetic that this is only number 6. Jumbo isn't your run of the mill word, and I know for damned sure I wouldn't be able to stop myself from checking this link.

Study: Watching Fewer Than Four Hours Of TV A Day Impairs Ability To Ridicule Pop Culture (headline from the current The Onion).
This headline should have been made to include or specify the news. The news is so [censored] worthless.
