Loss of interest

As this Le Monde article notes (only in French, unfortunately), there was a time when news of a Paris suburb consumed by "urban quasi-guerilla" warfare might have been news. But perhaps it's because the violence occurred between gangs following a rap concert, so not quite easily spun as France's latest run-in with Eurabian demographic terrorists, hence it's ignored. Or maybe President Sarko, tied up in post-election matters, didn't pay much attention so no one else did either.
