I think this song is a reaction to the spectacle that serious crimes have become in society. Because of modern technology, people get to watch real-life horrors unfold as if they were watching a ballgame, and they are treated as such.
I may be wrong, but I felt this was especially a reaction to America's obsession over the OJ Simpson trial. Am I way off? ;-)
