Just because they’re from McCleansville or Rochingsham or Fartbutt, NC, doesn't mean we care. North Carolina’s Idols might have other similarities with us (two eyes, own leaf blowers, harbor strong hatred of reality TV), but that doesn’t make something front-page news. Too bad every day can’t yield a major terrorist attack or Panthers playoff game to make the cover choice an easy one. (Well, OK, we’ll admit when Chris Daughtry got the ax, it may have been worthy of some front-page attention.)
