journalism Rise and Fall of 33 lives towering to the top to drop it after 140 characters Journalism

33 lives are 33 lives, whether in Chile and Pakistan. However, the media that we've taken the lives of 33 miners trapped underground for two months is far more important than the death of so and so many people in any corner of the world. Like a dog catches its prey, journalists have decided that this story is a reef and should fill pages and pages. Covers emerging here, reports and, no doubt, will shoot a movie.

We, the journalists, have soared to these 33 men whose lives have decided that it is better that, without going any further, the death of hundreds of his commitments in the earthquake that hit Chile a few months ago. Even the devastating earthquake that destroyed Haiti has received much media space.

33 lives are 33 lives. But they are worth more because the story sells, because the sensitivity is to the surface, because the planet is aware of how, when and how the hell out of that were locked the 5th of August.

In many corners of the world die entombed miners and others, with more luck, are rescued alive. But they have decided turning them and turn them into heroes, no more merit than have been lucky and have not buried dead. Nothing makes them different from others who have died. In fact, if they had died that August 5 would not have deserved it more than a column, or perhaps even that-in a page of the International section of newspapers.

33 lives are 33 life s. But they will be cannon fodder. When you find out with an unprecedented media hype. Newspapers will cover, will be interviewed to media around the world, the camera flashes will blind them for a few days ... Be the center of the universe but for how long? A couple of weeks at most, perhaps more than Chile.

33 lives are 33 lives, but little forgotten and we will not be long we will not know if they have been fired from the mine, if they live in poverty, or have rebuilt their lives, if not supported return to anonymity and taken refuge in alcohol or drugs to cope. We will be pushing to the top to let them fall. And even we turn the head to see crash. Many of these young men might die in a few months in another accident at another mine. Anyway, once their role in food of animal information, once swallowed into the gut of the system will not be more than a stool.

33 lives are 33 lives and this is like the others, neither better nor worse. But we are not interested to know anything about them later. So things are and so we have cash.
