I bookmarked this article because it is written from the perspective of Haitians. The writer is resenting the way the media is showing the earthquake itself, oftentimes overly exaggerating what is going on in Haiti. "I am focusing now on what is essential in life: love and friendship. Like most people here, I am not watching the news. We have limited power, and anyway it seems futile and even absurd to be a spectator of my own life, especially when the TV images highlight only the misery of our country. Many of us Haitians are offended by the coverage of the earthquake. Once more, a natural disaster serves as an occasion to showcase the impoverishment, to exaggerate the scenes of violence that are common to any catastrophe of this type." The author does mention in the article that many Haitian victims are even more hurt by the other foreign media because many of them exaggerate the situation.
