    nah, this is just saturation coverage of some storm

    why does the Newcastle Herald have live updates on this, it's happening 16,000 kilometres away?

    devastating. way more devastating than:

    Hurricane Sandy has been blamed for at least 69 deaths in the Caribbean. Here is a breakdown:
    — Haiti: The storm did not directly hit Haiti but it brought several days of drenching rains, causing rivers to overrun their banks across much of southern Haiti. The official death toll was 52 as of Monday.
    — Cuba: Officials say the storm killed 11 people, including an infant, damaged more than 130,000 homes, and destroyed about 15,000 homes in eastern Cuba.
    — Jamaica: One elderly man was killed when a boulder rolled onto his property and crushed him as the eye of Sandy traveled over eastern Jamaica. Floodwaters flattened farms, ripped roofs off houses in shantytowns and marooned rural areas.
    —Bahamas: Police say the hurricane apparently killed two people, including the CEO of a bank who fell from his roof while he was trying to repair a window shutter as Sandy approached Thursday.
    — Dominican Republic: The storm killed two young men who drowned while attempting to cross rivers in separate incidents. Nearly 30,000 people were evacuated due to widespread flooding in the south of the country, including parts of the capital.
    — Puerto Rico: The U.S. island territory was spared a direct hit but heavy rains caused flooding on the island. One death was reported, a man who was swept away in a rain-swollen river near the southern town of Juana Diaz.

    of course, these deaths are far more important as they are american, they have money and we can see it all live on tv.

    while all of these deaths are sad, it annoys me how a relatively small number of deaths from the same storm is way more newsworthy than 5 times the number of deaths in a third world country.

    some old jamaican dude being crushed by a boulder isn't as newsworthy as cars being swept away in the streets of manhattan.

    Even Jets supporters.

    My daughter is on a ship that left New York 24 hours before the storm hit.
