Or look at the first three paragraphs of the stories. That is generally what the crux of the story is about. You could summarize by writing something like, "Recent news reports about human rights in China show that ________" Focus on the main themes and highlight at least three points from the stories.

]]> Comment on Why is Fox News giving such light coverage to one of the most devastating natural disasters in recent memory? by Jack http://www.wayiplay.com/news/why-is-fox-news-giving-such-light-coverage-to-one-of-the-most-devastating-natural-disasters-in-recent-memory/comment-page-1#comment-4270 Jack Wed, 16 Jun 2010 05:51:59 +0000 http://www.wayiplay.com/news/why-is-fox-news-giving-such-light-coverage-to-one-of-the-most-devastating-natural-disasters-in-recent-memory#comment-4270 You're wrong - Fox had a lot of coverage. One could determine actual minutes, but that would be not spinning, unbiased, and folks that don't like Fox tend not to handle reality so well. I don't think CNN and MSNBC are getting good ratings at all... last I heart Fox is leading by something like a 7-1 ration.<br><b>References : </b><br>not NBC You’re wrong – Fox had a lot of coverage.

Like Congress sneaking through a crappy Health Care Bill in the dark of night behind closed doors. Everyone feels bad for the Haitians, we have sent our money, military and anything they may need.

Nah, I suppose it's because like most liberals you wake up at 2 p.m. after the news. The political commentators start to come on at that time, and there is very little political about what happened in Haiti.<br><b>References : </b><br> Reading Media Matters again?

I love it when the media claims that no relief supplies are being handed out and keep showing the same footage of video they took from the beginning. It would be more worthy of the news people reporting in Haiti to actually dirty their hands and start helping Haitians instead of talking and saying the same old stuff.<br><b>References : </b><br> Because all the other media is already saturating the U.S.A of the news.
