Tina- Due to my serious injury all I can do is lay down and watch television
which includes the news. On the day of the tsunami Canadian TV ran continuos
BBC coverage while CNN had Wolf Blitzer talking Iraq and other US politics.
It was like it never happened. Since then the American  TV media has relied
on both BBC and ITN for help in the coverage.

Cheers,
Kevin Argue
