>I understand that there's help coming in, but AFAIK, no reporters went to Haiti to cover the hurricane live like there was for Gustav in NO. Why the difference in coverage? I understand that it's normal for the US TV stations to cover more the US part, but I wonder why the Canadians TV stations did a greater coverage of the US situation than for Haiti.

I'm guessing that it is due to the possibility of the levees breaking again and the catastrophic damages that would do (given Katrina and the new levees are only temporary ones)...

and to report on any failure they can find with the local and federal preparations...
