Yes to both of these. I know we're dealing with our own natural disaster right now, but that doesn't mean the rest of the world just disappeared.
Especially considering how they were so ready to go wall-to-wall with the London subway bomb stuff. I mean, this is tens of thousands of people dead, and by 20 past the hour, the news is already on jackass other stuff.

Yes, well, see, most Londeners are
white.
Actually, it's the terrorism aspect. Playing up terror attacks sells copy, and can have a political spin (either "must continue War on Terra" or "terrorism increased since Iraq War"). I know that "Thousands die in Bangladesh flooding" is the old joke, but seriously, tremendous natural disasters going on here, folks.

I wonder if the white thing comes into play too... I don't think the bali coverage was as exhaustive.
Um... how do they know?
Lucky guess?
I have no idea -- it was a very strange headline. (I couldn't read the article because the person whose shoulder I was reading over didn't turn to that page.)
Heather, since Phoebe is my actual name, I beg you not to use it.
Done. I don't think I'd like anyone using my name either, even if I'm not going to. I'm getting attatched to Daisy Jane and Belle Reave though I don't know what the latter is, I just think it sounds pretty.
Belle Reve means beautiful dream, is a prison in the Batworld, and a plantation house in Streetcar named desire.
I'd totally gank that.
I need a Mr. Poll. Veronica, Daisy Jane, stroppet (I think I'm not going to use the Belle one, because I wouldn't want it to get confused in the short hand with msbelle). Or y'all could name me by bullshit consensus.
Katie Holmes has been in the business for nine years?
Dawson's Creek debuted during the second season of Buffy. So she's been famous for slightly over 8.
I was just about to say that you'd be a welcome addition to belledom (I feel I can speak for Alibelle on this), but whatever you choose will be faboo.
I dunno, I was kinda thinking I might change my name to "Bullshit Consensus."
