Duke Lacrosse Team Story

i dont think youre taking into account the other things that are in the news right now. in my opinion, natalie holloway was a "fluff" news story that was filling the news void at the time. the huge immigration story is pushing the duke rape case to the background here. had the duke story broke during a slower newsweek, i have think it would be much much bigger.

Not a valid excuse because as one MSNBC news guy said, "whenever we have a story about Nathalie our ratings go up."
