Miraculous Escape

The other news today is the miraculous escape of nearly 309 people yesterday from an Air France airline, flight 358 from Paris, which skidded off the runway in Canada and caught fire. This happened at Toronto's Pearson International Airport after the Airbus A340 landed at around 4 p.m. Tuesday in a heavy rain storm.

While this is a wonderful news. I am disappointed that the US news media only covers such incidents when they happen in Western countries. Where is the coverage of third world nations. Why wasn't there any reporting of a similar incident of an Air India jet skidding off the runway in Mumbai last week during the heavy rains?
