One of the things I love to check out when I’m surfing the net is the list of Yahoo!’s most e-mailed news stories. Basically, it sums up what stories Web surfers are sharing with their friends most often. You know how one of the biggest pop culture stories of the week has been about the release of the newest got-to-have-it tech toys Playstation 3? At one point last night, this is how the lineup appeared:
The No. 5 most popular story on Yahoo!: "Gamers line up for new Playstation 3"
Imagine my surprise when I read the No. 4 most popular story: "Kansas man shoots himself in the groin." If you haven’t yet read the story, which appeared earlier this week in The Eagle, check it out here. You also can read an update on the man here.
Another national image problem for Kansas?
