The story from this post:
http://opalinemortal.livejournal.com/40711.html was on the local news last night as the lead story.
Three months after it happened, and months after it had hit a national newspaper. Of course, it was about the principal being charged with "failure to report an incident", and the boys being charged with "kidnapping and rape". Oh yeah, we're quick to take care of things here.
Wow, I'm impressed at Columbus. It reported something other than a cow dying. (Yes, I know that local news reports more than just cows dying. =p)
