L.A. hasn't burned down
I got off the plane yesterday half expecting to find most of Los Angeles on fire.
That's what it looked like from the video footage and doomsday commentary I saw Tuesday on television anyway.
Funny thing, when I've told people from L.A. that Detroit is my hometown, they seemed surprised that anybody still lives in Motown. They say that from what they've seen on TV, they perceived all of Michigan as hell on earth.
Which got me to thinking: Has the media become so hyperbolic -- everything is end-of-the-world BREAKING NEWS -- that it's just about worthless.
Probably not.
But then again, despite contrary reports, L.A. has not burned down and Michigan still has a pulse.
