Mainstream Failure
I get so tired of comments blasting mainstream media. It's easy to do, and just counterproductive. The good stories about the tsunami are out there, you just have to stop watching 24 hour news channels. Read the Boston Globe, The New York Times, The Atlantic.<p>Please stop complaining that good stories don't fall in your lap for free. Go find them, or build a better way to put important, un-sensationalized stories in front of millions of people while getting effectively compensated for your time.<p>Here's 10 minutes of checking top news sources:<p><a href="http://www.washingtonpost.com/world/aftershocks-keep-japanese-in-fear-as-residents-worry-about-another-big-one/2011/03/21/ABYNwA7_story.html" rel="nofollow">http://www.washingtonpost.com/world/aftershocks-keep-japanes...</a><p><a href="http://www.washingtonpost.com/world/japan-earthquake-and-tsunami-caused-up-to-235-billion-in-damages-world-bank-says/2011/03/21/ABtzwn4_story.html" rel="nofollow">http://www.washingtonpost.com/world/japan-earthquake-and-tsu...</a><p><a href="http://www.boston.com/bigpicture/" rel="nofollow">http://www.boston.com/bigpicture/</a><p><a href="http://www.seattlepi.com/national/1104ap_as_japan_earthquake_bank_robbery.html" rel="nofollow">http://www.seattlepi.com/national/1104ap_as_japan_earthquake...</a><p><a href="http://www.usatoday.com/news/world/2011-03-21-japan-earthquake_N.htm" rel="nofollow">http://www.usatoday.com/news/world/2011-03-21-japan-earthqua...</a><p><a href="http://www.nytimes.com/2011/03/22/science/22predict.html?ref=asia" rel="nofollow">http://www.nytimes.com/2011/03/22/science/22predict.html?ref...</a><p><a href="http://www.latimes.com/news/nationworld/world/la-fg-japan-aging-20110322,0,1303885.story" rel="nofollow">http://www.latimes.com/news/nationworld/world/la-fg-japan-ag...</a><p><i>edit to add links</i>
