Iraq?
The tragic death of hundrends of people in Iraq doesn't even make the homepage of CNN news (American edition). What's odd is not that the equally terrible disaster nearer home in New Orleans takes precedence, that seems the correct decision, but that even their World News link headlines are "Taiwan braces for powerful typhoon; Mugabe tightens power grip; Bid to impeach Arroyo quashed". The International Edition actually leads on it.ps It's quite plausible the Arabic International Edition doesn't mention New Orleans, but I can't read it. It seems a terribly narrow focus.
Update: It does now.
