This is breaking news at CNN. Probably because this is Foley day, I haven't seen anything about the story here at Daily Kos. That's a shame because this story is a real heartbreaker and deserves more exposure, regardless of whether or not it is politically charged. Thus, my daily diary is dedicated to this story.
A huge Boeing 737 airliner carrying more than 150 people collided with a small jet and has now "disappeared" over the Amazon in Brazil. I applaud CNN for giving such exposure to an international issue that has little (nothing) to do with the United States. As bleak as the situaiton seems, keep your hopes high.
I am covering this story at my webiste, http://discoverpolitics.blogspot.com/. Keep checking in and I promise to keep you updated to the best of my abilities.
