Oh, CNN

It seems as if the international media are finally paying attention to the Ivorian situation. It's sad that it took a massacre of 800+ in Duekoue to spark the attention, but beggars can't be choosers. What I do take issue with is CNN's research team. This article is cursory, poorly researched, and almost insulting to the struggle the Ivorians have been going though in this four-month long conflict. About the only thing they get right is why the international community doesn't care. Check out the article here: http://edition.cnn.com/2011/WORLD/africa/04/03/ivory.coast.explainer/index.html?hpt=C1
