I have no idea who Kiel Gunner is or why he’s at the top of the news. The same goes for Robert Edwards, unless it’s the former NPR Morning Edition host. I also have no clue who Nate Berkus is, who Miranda Kerr is, or what something called MetroPCS Communications has done to merit such exalted status.
What’s interesting to me is that nobody seems to be looking for news about the loony guy in Pyongyang. If he has access to Google, that must frost him no end.
