Thanks for noticing, CNN

You just never know what CNN’s batty home page is gonna have for you.

This morning, alongside “Space station crew tastes recycled urine” and

“Old wars, new wars, devastation is the same” (which is a little bit

Marcus Aurelius and a little bit Harry Chapin), the big story is

headlined “Whites become minority in Kansas county.”

The lead:

Hundreds of U.S. communities are changing complexion. Though not new in

California, Arizona, Texas or Florida, the change of demographics is

more surprising in southwest Kansas. Finney County, Kansas, is one of

six counties across the nation that became majority-minority between

2007 and 2008, according to the U.S. Census Bureau.

More surprising than what, CNN? The smooth flavor of space pee? Or the shock of media-driven xenophobia?
