Thousands gathered on the National Mall in Washington, D.C. Tuesday to honor America’s veterans with The Concert For Valor. And the moment Eminem swore, every media outlet simultaneously forgot the veterans. The only things the media cares about, apparently, are Bruce Springsteen singing Creedence Clearwater Revival’s “Fortunate Son,” an anti-war song that protested the Vietnam War, and Eminem swearing. A lot. None of them mentioned the veterans, the people the show was supposed to be about. And even if they managed to write about the concert without, or only briefly, mentioning Eminem and Springsteen, they still couldn’t be bothered to mention any of the heroic and inspiring stories spread throughout the 3 hour concert, aside from Leroy Petry, a Medal of Honor recipient.??
