Philippines Typhoon Photo

Available only in the printed paper:

"SEARCHING FOR TYPHOON VICTIMS -- A fishing vessel was capsized in Bataan, a Philippine province, yesterday after a typhoon hit the area. Troops searched the coastline for about two dozen fishermen yesterday. The typhoon hit the region late Tuesday and Wednesday, packing 75 mile per hour winds and killing at least 26 people (Boston Globe July 16 2010)."

So how many other things is that Globe web version concealing or omitting, dear readers?


I guess Filipinos or the other people in the path of that storm are not important enough for print.

I'm so ashamed at the crap that passes for a newspaper here, world.

I'm so sorry, dear readers.
