Setting the Stage, But Where’s the MSM?

Pajamas Media‘s Nidra Poller sets the stage for today’s trial. Meanwhile, Richard Landes told HonestReporting this morning that blogs have shown more interest in the proceedings than the MSM, but that will likely change:

The mainstream media was slow to pick up on France’s November, 2005 riots. It took papers like the NY Times seven days to even mention the riots, while bloggers addressed the violence from day one. As each trial progresses, we’ll see more and more coverage. The question isn’t whether the mainstream catches on, but when.

To our knowledge, only the Jerusalem Post has picked up on the trial.
