COMMENTS: Confusing a Possible Crisis for a Current Disaster…BTW, It’s War
"The nuclear crisis in Japan has, in some ways, overshadowed the growing humanitarian disaster there," declared CBS anchor Katie Couric, introducing a report from Tokyo. She can strike that qualifier "in some ways." The distortion of the news agenda is complete, with 430,000 homeless, 10,000 missing believed dead, and remote coastal villages cut off from relief deliveries of food and water amid the winter snow. Perversely, all three networks decided to lead instead with the crisis at the Fukushima Daiichi nuclear power plant complex (ABC from Washington DC, NBC and CBS from Tokyo), as their coverage of the aftermath of the earthquake and tsunami continued. For the fourth straight day, ABC and NBC labeled their newscasts special editions--Disaster in the Pacific and Disaster in Japan respectively. Yet the saturation coverage is subsiding, down to 53% of the three-network newshole (32 min v 44, 50, 51, 50 for the four previous weekdays). Meanwhile the United Nations Security Council authorized its member states to go to take up arms against Moammar Khadafy's government of Libya. If the United States finds itself at war this will go down as the least newsworthy call to arms (5 mins) in its history.
