Suffering Suffrage: US Electoral Fraud ; A Tale of Two Demonstrations ; WACC Supports Lobby of UN Communications Agency ; Young Voices ; Bolivian Radios Building Citizenship ; People Power as a Media Experience ; Media in Disasters, A Disaster in Media - Sean Hawkey: The recent earthquakes in El Salvador and India might be called "sexy" by some journalists. They provide sellable high-impact images of landscapes strewn with debris and faces of desperation and grief. They also give us the gripping drama of daring rescue teams working against the clock to save trapped and buried survivors before they die. Presenting the technical and political lessons learnt from previous disasters or educational programmes contributing to the prevention of disasters is far less "sexy", so sadly they get much less attention.
