        If a minor explosion happened in Tuscaloosa or Little Rock, it'd barely make a blip in national news.

        The geographic concentration of media in a select few locales, especially NYC, has many distortive consequences: this is one of them

        Not sure why that means an explosion there "matters" more though -- do Little Rock residents "matter" less than NYC residents?

        Outsized attention? There was a coordinated bombing attack in 3 US cities. When was the last time that happened?
