Getting a grip as media goes nuts on ISIS, Ebola

Here are links to a couple of stories that call out the media for pandering to panic about ISIS crimes and the Ebola virus in the U.S. Joan Smith in the Independent (London) ticks off the U-K media for playing the tools of two-bit killers trying to paralyze a civilisation with their bloodthirsty conduct. In the U.S., Kia Makarechi in Vanity Fair takes on the digital screaming meemies over Ebola. Yes, it’s a concern but you would think there were bodies in the street the way the 24-hour News Wheel of Hysteria is handling the story.
