the oil disaster.

they didn't say much. just that the dome didn't work and why. and that the no fishing zone was made larger. and a reporter gathered some of the oil slick, took it to a lab because some people were saying it was red tide and not oil. it was oil.

Wolf spent the first 25 min. at 6 p.m. reporting on the failed NYC bomber. 25 min. oil disaster got 3 or 4 min.

(an aside on the failed bomber. why is his wife not reported on at all and her pic blocked out in the photo? they have reported everything about the bomber but not the wife.)

I checked CNN again at 10 pm and nothing new, little said. this morning was the same.

yesterday I posted the thread that I just kicked back to pg. one about the gulf stream picking up the oil.

this report had a bunch of new news that CNN did not and has not reported. why?

that the hurricane plane will drop a type of thermometer to see if they can determine where the oil on the sea bed is going. we can see what the oil on the surface is doing but not the oil on the sea floor.

the article explained that the gulf stream loops change locations and could at any time locate where the surface oil is.

that there is a kind of wall near the Keys that would stop the sea bed oil from flowing forward. and it would pool up. and they don't know what would happen to it after that.

so why haven't CNN reported all the above and more from the report? they have examined the failed bomber probably down to how many times a day he pees but have little to say about the DISASTER!!!

what's going on?

Wash. Journal didn't talk about it at all. I just watched the beginning where they told who the guests were and what would be talked about. the DISASTER is political!!

I don't watch the other media. are they saying more then CNN?

am I asking too much? couldn't the DISASTER deserve 25 min. too?
