Finally some coverage on the Bombay flooding

#

CNN finally has something to report on the Bombay floods? How can such a huge thing in one of the biggest cities in the world not come on the US News radar???

The cat which got trapped on the second floor balcony gets 3 minutes of coverage the same evening, but such an event with huge economic impact hardly even gets mentioned.

One strong reason why I don’t like the mass media here in the US.

For those concerned, my family and friends all seem to be ok. All had their own experiences like sleeping in the office, spending hours in the car on the road, car floating and going away in the currents, etc. But thankfully, all are ok.
