Over at The Command Post's Op-Ed section, I've written two articles about the Indian Ocean Tsunamis which might be helpful explaining what you're going to see on Mainstream Media in the coming days and weeks.
Counting The Cost - why the casualty numbers will fluctuate, and why it will be months before they're even approximately accurate.
Disaster Aid Bottlenecks - what the difficulties are that are being overcome, what the critical shortages are, and why Bad Weather is such Bad News.

Anonymous commenters - please add a signature (doesn't have to be your real name) on each post of yours. Anne O'Namus, Norm D. Ploom, Angry from Kent, Demosthenes, or even your real initials, it doesn't matter.
Commenters are expected to be polite to each other, but the same standard doesn't apply to comments regarding me.
Australian commenters are very very strongly advised to publish anonymously. Sydney alone has more defamation actions than the entire USA and UK. Nearly double that of the UK in fact.
As Google does not reliably inform me that a comment has been posted, and I have no control over first publication, I assert that all comments are innocently disseminated under the NSW DEFAMATION ACT 2005 - SECT 32 and similar acts.
