Maldives under media black out as per this FR link http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/1308548/posts
Casualties reported but nothing about deaths. Wonder if Perth, Australia is in danger, as well as all of West Africa, especially South Africa and Madagascar
Actually CNN has mentioned it in each report they've done (and they have been live off and on...CNN International) and articles are mentioning it with close to the amount of specifics that are known from anywhere else. I'm not sure where that title came from...It doesn't appear to be the actual article title, perhaps more the OP opinion? The title on the page is: Maldives flooded after tidal waves, reports of casualties but no figures
I think the bigger issue is that MANY of these areas have a HUGE lack of communication capabilities right now...and some are just so cut off becuase of damage that it's simply lack of real specifics because of the damage.
Just my two cents...
Thanks. This seems to be getting worse and worse.
