| > The fact this isn't covered in NYT or headlines on cable TV is insane Seriously, where is this idea coming from? Search the NYT, there's been coverage of the incident almost every day since it happened - not just the incident and its causes, but also on potential environmental fallout and meta-coverage of journalism and conspiracies around the whole thing. Many times it's been the top-line headline, at least when I am logged in. I've seen continuous coverage on NPR, in fact the subject of this post is the current top headline on npr.org. Every time I've been at a relative's who watches MSNBC I hear it brought up at least once during news hour. My local paper a couple hundred miles away, despite thin coverage these days, has even had articles about what/any impact the fire has in our region. The only event I've seen the has had anywhere close to the amount of coverage is the Turkey - Syria earthquake, which is a global level natural disaster that's killed 46,000 people and counting. I think that rightfully deserves coverage as well. What national outlets are you following that you haven't seen coverage of this? |
