Representation of the Haiti earthquake created some interesting media. The American political commentator Bill O'Reilly produced a savage attack on Haiti in his Fox news segment. His views are extreme [and contradictory and could be viewed as the rant of a sad bigot]. Andy Kershaw's brilliant article is a passionate and eloquent defence of the Haitian people. These two texts and images of the disaster from Google images provide suitable resources for a consideration of representation and the impact of digital media . This work is appropriate for MEST 3.
