Fox News blames it on capitalism. [Fox News] (tip Jennie via email)
10 year old girl in Calcutta brings iPod to school. 14 year old boy wants iPod. 10 year old girl refuses to comply. Boy pushes girl off a bridge. Girl loses consciousness. Boy could’ve taken iPod at this stage but for some reason he kills the girl by strangling her before stealing the iPod.
Very sad situation. But the fact is, such killings happen on a daily basis on street corners all over America. Every heard of muggings? Yet, Fox News that self-proclaimed last bastion of conservatism and capitalism, could not resist the sensation value of a story set in an “exotic” Indian setting between “have-nots” killing the “haves” over an iPod, as evident from this blurb (and I quote) “simmering discontents as socio-economic inequalities soar and aspirations rise”.
