Your title is very appropriate. The formula is always the same on a tragic event like this (and my comments are not meant to belittle the immensity of the tragedy, only the media coverage).

There will be structural engineers theorizing as to the cause, non stop photos of the scene, interviews with emergency workers, repeated counts of the number of dead and injured, officials telling us how horrible it is....all repeated ad infinitum.

In Phoenix two news helicopters collided while covering a car chase this week. Both crashed, 4 people died. Horrible indeed. There weas non stop local coverage for two days with nothing new being said, no new information, just the same things over and over. I really don't understand it.
