Not sure about CNN or MSNBC- but FOX has covered it- though not closely- all day. But the extent of their coverage was the discussions between the US and Japan, huddled diplomats wringing hands...vague threats of going to the (don't laugh now) UN Security Council...
Pretty amazing when you condsider what we're hearing from FReepers in the Pacific, isn't it?
The U.S. and Japan both urged North Korea to halt preparations for a test-launch of a long-range missile, after Japanese and South Korean news reports said the North had loaded booster rockets onto a launch pad and could test-fire the missile as early as Sunday.
Japanese Foreign Minister Taro Aso warned North Korea on Sunday Tokyo would regard any missile that dropped on Japan as an attack, the Reuters news service reported.
"If it is dropped on Japan, it will complicate the story. It will be regarded as an attack," Aso said on a Fuji TV program.
"The possibility is not zero of a missile dropping on Japan. That's why we are worried," Aso said on the program, according to Reuters.
Yep. FR is the best.
