Drought and tragedy in East Africa.

I follow the news online on the BBC. I find them more global, more balanced and less commercialized than that of the main US news channels. The BBC has been talking about the devastating drought affecting approximately 10 million people in East Africa.

Honestly how many of you living in the US had heard about it? Let me know using the comment button.

Here is a video and article from the BBC: http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-africa-14174893

And one from Al Jezeera English: http://english.aljazeera.net/news/africa/2011/07/201171671748257707.html
