COMMENTS: Yellow Lentil Stuffing
Both NBC and ABC filed from the frontlines of aid delivery in cyclone-ravaged coastal Bangladesh where the death toll has risen to 5,000. ABC's Nick Schifrin (subscription required) profiled the efforts of Save the Children and USAID. NBC's Ian Williams (no link) introduced us to CARE International's Geneva-based former NBC News journalist Bill Dowell, as he checked the "flimsy roadside shelters" erected by the homeless: "The frames were made of broken branches covered by saris, plastic or sacks." ABC's Schifrin saw the American aid workers dine: "Lamb replaces turkey, yellow lentils for stuffing." Theirs is a "holiday about thanking--also about giving."
