Re: [californiadisasters] A why is it?

I found better coverage of the Mississippi River situation on BBC than on US
sources for a while. (I'm now watching NO TV-Internet sources, including a
Webcam of Algiers Point. and WWL-TV and CE charts on river stage.)

I just don't watch TV news at all anymore. (And I don't consider PBS's new
program stream of such sources as al Jaziera to be an improvement!)

Even on the Web news, I found about 10 times as much coverage of the IMF
president's and Arnold's "issues" than of the plight of thousands of
Louisiana residents being forced to move from their homes.
