But, what do the journalists hafta report on? They see no gain in reporting about this. Most people who are not affected by this do not even care or know what, in fact, a big deal this really is. Nothing will be done unless the landlords, hotels, etc. complain and get together and/or lose money. The bigs guys are gonna hafta be effected for anything to be done. There have been journalists who went through their own bb saga and reported on it. Bedbugs have been in the news as people sue hotels and universities for compensation. But, this is falling on deaf ears. When will America wake up? Lt.Dan: How true you are. But, what do the journalists hafta report on? They see no gain in reporting about this.

We are in a major health crisis and very little is being done about this and this epidemic will become so bad that it will be too late if it is not already too late. If the media bombards us with reporting then our political leaders will be forced into dealing with the situation. The media has a chance to help the public with this. Good God wake up journalists! This country has not had a bed bug problem in fifty years or more. I am sorry but is this not big news? Remeber that as of now entomologists seem to think that bed bugs do not spread disease but would they bet their life savings on that? The way that bed bugs are changing as in their build up of pesticide resistance it may be possible that they may eventually spread disease if they are not already. I have not been able to find an explanation that a regular person can understand as to how bed bugs are not able to spread disease. All that I see is occasional reporting stating the same facts along with the same people interviewed. I will quote Doctor Miller "Someday we all may be living with bed bugs."
