120 kids and it is only a big enough story for a backwater NH TV station?  And just a paragraph at that?  Does that seem weird to anyone else?

No.

 

This has been happening more frequently than you think, and almost never reported.  Last media report I saw was about an immigrant kid who was united with his legally resident mother after six months in detention...the media left out the part where he was brought across the border by human traffickers, and it took six months' investigation to roll up the trafficking ring and determine the mother wasn't part of it.

It should - especially because it's not an isolated case of ignoring this exact thing (arresting human traffickers, specifically children). 

 

There's a lot of progress on that front, historic levels of progress in fact, that has gone completely un-reported outside of the occasional local news piece where the arrests happen. Even then, they're not usually front page news. 

 

Is it a case of the media not wanting to shine any positive light on local/state/federal law enforcement (because Trump), or is it a case of not wanting to bite the hand that feeds many well connected/powerful people in the info-tainment game?

You're not supposed to get within 100 yards of a whale... 500 yards if its a Right Whale.

There are hundreds of whales in the Cape Cod Bay and they're all protected. 

Not sure where these lummoxes were, but If I had a big boat, I'd ram them.

Puget Sound. it is mentioned in the audio.

Mitch, you magnificent bastard! Libs are PISSED at Senate Dems for agreeing to this deal with McConnell

While most of the media spent the day losing their collective minds over Kanye West being at the White House, Leader McConnell spent the day getting 15 more judges set for confirmation by the Senate.

 

And how, pray tell, did Mitch McConnell do that? The art of the deal, of course:
