Why is there so little news coverage of the post election unrest in Iran?

[Bopped]

I was looking at all the traffic on twitter earlier and it seems like a bunch of demonstrations, etc are going on over there, but there is a death of news coverage. Anyone have any insight?

.....I wasn't aware that there was. It was all over the news yesterday. I tuned in to FNC, MSNBCS, and CNN....saw it plenty....

I think you mean "dearth" of information. And, I've been watching CNN this morning and it's all over the news. I'm not sure what news sources you are watching, but perhaps it's time to choose some others. I'm sure part of the reason you're not seeing it is that Faux News is still busy covering the David Letterman thing...

I've seen quite a lot really.

The News in the US are covering it pretty well, if you consider the fact that they aren't that great in covering any international news. People here are interested. But I doubt that we are getting the whole story due to censorship within Iran.
