True, I don't have cable, so I don't keep up with the news on a regular basis, but I am on the Internet all the time, and this certainly seems like a story that, if it had been well covered (or covered at all) would have ended up on Facebook, Twitter, blogs, and just about everywhere else on the Internet. So why didn't it?
I don't know. Maybe because people still associate AIDS with homosexuality? Maybe because conservatives still want to see AIDS as "God's punishment for the gays"? Maybe because anti-abortion activists don't want stem-cell research to prove extremely useful?
Sadly, I think the lack of coverage was less the result of a conservative, homophobic conspiracy than just the result of a media with distorted priorities. In this section of Time, they pointed out the stories that were widely covered, and compared them to the ones (like this one) that weren't. What was covered instead of this possible AIDS cure? A Congressional discussion on whether tomato paste counts as a vegetable or not. (In the same section, I discovered that we didn't hear about a deadly drought in Africa because of the mass coverage of the royal wedding.)
Now, I can be interested in the nutritional value of tomato paste, but I can also search for that on the Internet without any politicians having to spend time on it. And I too can get caught up in celebrity gossip and information, though I'm usually a few days/weeks behind. But come on, media, let's get it together. AIDS has been a deadly disease in our country, as well as all over the world, for a few decades now. The possibility of a cure should be front-page, lead story news. For several days. Or weeks. There should be continued updates. There should be pictures and interviews with the doctors/researchers involved.
There should be more than a paragraph in Time Magazine.
