Two Australian miners have been freed after being trapped underground for 14 days. Thank God.
Speaking of being underground, where were all the TV reports about these two men? There was a lot of coverage of the Sago, WV miner debacle, and it was right to have a lot of coverage of that horrendous mess. Since Sago, there have been mine disasters in Mexico, China, Canada, and now Australia. Almost no coverage at all has been dedicated to even mentioning these events.
Whatever happened to "safety first"? Let's hear about these problems and then figure out how to fix them. Let's not let more people die in tragic industrial accidents.
