Car hits group of pedestrians near Boston's Logan Airport, a number of casualties reported - state policehttp://bbc.in/2uilYCA

Is this a new thing or were they just not reported all that much before? Cars hitting pedestrians seems to be a daily occurrence now.
-
It's almost like if traffic accidents happen daily, and most people misjudge the likelyhood of occurance of terror attacks.
-
It's so frustrating - I've been checking all over and NPR in the US is the only outlet that mentions it wasn't terrorism in the headline.
-
I'm against the 'Fake News' bashing, but I do think we have a serious clickbait problem that's getting people all fired up over nothing.
-
This, of course, doesn't make it any better for those affected by this accident, and my love and prayers go out to them.
-
Obviously, that goes without saying. All the better for the victims, but this wouldn't be a major headline 7 years ago.
-
Totally agree. Just wanted to clarify as I realised 'over nothing' might be insensitive. It's a shame news plays to our worst sensibilities.

No, all of a sudden the media report cars crashing or hitting pedestrians. Happens all the time, it's been going on for decades.

Why report every car crash now with "it's ok sorry to have scared you again it's not terrorism". General run of the mill car ax = NOT NEWS
