News cycle prediction.

This story about a part-time Census Bureau worker found hanged in Kentucky is pretty awful.  

My prediction:  if the national mainstream media cover it much, they'll largely focus on generic "anti-government hostility" (Timothy McVeigh/Waco model) and ignore things like the huge illegal pot-growing industry in southeastern Kentucky.

Just to be clear, I am making this prediction based on expectation of "it's just flyover country" oversimplifications, not so much on expectation of left/right bias.

See if I'm wrong.

    I’m from KY and everyone knew that pot is the real cash crop…and not just in the southeastern part of the state.
