Hi Robin,I really enjoy your blog tkahns.Perhaps the biase is generated by the different needs [and motivations] of the Haitians, the media back office [production] and front office [reporters]? The Haitian needs are as you sensibly identify. Timeframe now and forever.However the media's production need is product and it sells better with a bit of spice . Timeframe until it goes stale, and try to keep it fresh as long as you can. And to be fair to middle class reporters from nice suburbs in developed countries sitting in the midst of all that distressing human pain and suffering, maybe there is an immediacy for the reporters in securing medicine it makes them [the reporters] feel better too - I'm here to report and in doing so help feels much better than I'm here to exploit this pain and suffering ? And reporters are human and medecine is a comforting rationalisation or maybe the human imperative at ground zero is to want to help right now . Timeframe immediate.Each have their own logic and I wouldn't dare pass judgement you probably have to be there.And in the long run, your logic will be the one that prevails as the noise falls away. But only then.You make me think. Thanks!Karl.
