"someone really should go over there and document the tragedy. I'm seeing very little in the media, photography or otherwise.
(sarcasm meter should be reading high)"
The mainstream media will repeat the same sentences and show same pctures for months, but they won't make it any less abstract, it's a distant tragedy, and inadvertantly a cash cow. You won't here them report on the Indonesian army's refusal to allow aid to the hardest hit parts of the country(the areas previously controlled by insurgents). You won't here about the U.S. giving aid on the condition of allowing the military to build back towards vietnam era infrastructure levels in Thailand, or that significant portions of what is being called "aid" is in fact just loans.
