They were due
Oh well, Haiti's run of good luck had to end sometime.
I don't want to start any blasphemous rumors

One thing I find amazing is that the Herald has had nary a mention of Haiti on their front page all day.
Herald and Haiti
The Herald had a fairly big spread with color photos and local-angle coverage in this morning's printed newspaper. And on the website there are 3 stories on their main page: a basic news update, the local angle, and links to make local donations.
Hmmm
I only saw the relief plane story on the FP all day. They did just put up an extensive AP story a few minutes ago.
