MSNBC story on stays of execution

Today, I switched over to MSNBC in my car for a little while, via Sirius.



Not my usual fare, but sometimes listenable, though sometimes not.



In any case there was a story about two inmates scheduled for execution receiving stays. The issue was the source and quality of the drugs used for lethal injection.



I am very much on the fence about capital punishment. But I thought it odd that in the entire piece no mention was made of the crimes the two were convicted of. It seems an important part of the story, to give some perspective to the severity of the punishment.



Do you think this was an unintentional oversight, or intentionally left out? And if intentional, what might have been the motive?
