A question of priorities or deliberate media apathetic abandonment?

COPY OF MY EMAIL TO UK CHANNEL 4 NEWS

Dear Sir

I was absolutely disgusted by the coverage that Channel 4 News has given to the Chilean miners, since we have all known for some time now that they were all in good health and coping well. However, given the horrendous suffering, despair and distress of the people of Pakistan due to the HAARP induced flood devastation, Channel 4 News only saw fit to broadcast brief hit pieces on Pakistan, and most of that was overshadowed by a stupid cricketing scandal.

On Wednesday evening, (13 October `10) I felt sick having to listen to a grovelling sycophantic, slimy Jon Snow immaturely delight in the freeing of the miners. To be frank, most people don't give a shit, when peoples lives and livelihoods are being destroyed on the other side of the world.

It was the same story in the wake of the HAARP induced Haiti earthquake. Those poor people were abandoned too by a media blackout. It's too simplistic to accuse Channel 4 News of getting its priorities wrong. This is another demonstration of the media power to inspire apathy and compassion fatigue upon the masses.

Unfortunately, some people can sleep at night without a conscience.

Kind Regards,
Glenn Gordon
