Nope, just that what they choose to show is not the happy helpers that are doing work, but the horrific destruction. Both are true, one gets more airtime and thus tells a less balanced story. This morning we get the stories of people who did get off their duff and with what little was available before outside help arrived had set up solutions. No more blood and tears to shoot, so lets do the happy stories

Then by your logic, since the media focusses on the pain, death, destruciton, and suffering more than focussing on the overwhelming number of survivors, then this proves that the "crisis" is a creation of the liberal media out to get Bush!

It could also be the speed and views of the media on the ground.  We
hit the ground sort of running in Indonesia, and the happy media people
tell stories of what great good we get done along with the tear stories
so that the do gooders look gooder.

Media is on the scene, balance shifts to showing what is not getting
done, instead of the do gooder stories.  A little bias goes a long way
