The Vortex news media and the ideological which operates in the same for the selection of agenda items - that many Journalists sometimes applied automatically and uncritically-shifted tragedy Haitian news and pages of newspapers.
Diving on the web I found an excellent note of Martin Rodriguez in Rolling Stone (Argentina Edition): "Haiti, if the earth shakes" in which the journalist draws a picture of present situation in that country from everyday life and share the experience of Argentine troops who make up the international mission run by the United Nations.
a couple of weeks ago, for the first 100 days after the earthquake, the English newspaper El Mundo published another excellent report , in this case signed by Carlos Fresneda, which reflects the same reality, but through the eyes of doctors, social workers and religious Iberian population attending the disaster survivor.
In both cases, establishing the link with social policy and terrible saga of the country in which the earthquake appears to be "another twist." Martín Rodríguez review, in brief and concise, the links of French colonialism and U.S. with poverty, authoritarianism and violence suffered - and suffering - Haiti for much of its history.
As a reminder that this "half island" is also part of Latin America.
