It seems TV news media can only focus on a few things at a time. These days it's Tiger Woods, the Olympics, Afghanistan, the economy and ... Toyota recalls. But there are so many other developments happening every day. Conflicts in the Congo, Japanese open season on whale killing, the invention of information teleportation...etc. The Tamil Tigers have been one of those low humming stories here in the states. I understand that there's only so many stories a news program can cram in a broadcast and it's crucial that CNN repeat their news cycle again and again and again just in case you missed it. It's always interesting to come across a story with a lot of history and deep implications for the future that has barely been brought to the surface.
