There is a black hole of news coming out of Hawaii, just a lot of nothing, I fear the internet and the MSM is under a censor, all to protect the tourism image.

I'm amazed in the era of Facebook and Twitter that govt could have that much power without shutting down cell phones and the net. AFAIK those are both functional.

I’m anxious for news of HI since I have quite a few friends there. Hard to find any news other than freepers from there posting what they see or hear locally.

Aloha Eye!

You got that right....the local radio news has been dismal so we've had to rely on the Coconut Wireless and a couple cell phone calls for information.

Just got home after spending a sleepless night away from home and now searching the net for real news.

Little damage anywhere except North and South Kona on the Big Island. They got a 10 foot surge that tore up the roads and damaged some establishments.

To protect Wall Street. The Dow closed up 60 points on a day like this.

I noticed the same thing. Pretty much no news on what has happened in the US from the tidal waves. Like someone is trying to hide it. If not for the internet then we would know nothing.
