...years. But far too many people are still dying from preventable diarrheal diseases. Today, according to unicef, diarrhea still claims the lives of 36,000 young Bangladeshi children a year. Infants like Sohag would perish if they didn't live near a hospital - because they were born to parents unfamiliar with oral rehydration. For the third time in 12 days, 6-month-old Ullash has been admitted to the ICDDR's children's ward; just one of 325 patients admitted within the last 24 hours. The boy weighs only 69% of the expected weight for his age and is malnourished...

...outlets, the Fox News Channel, was forced to air some of the most unkind, hurtful, and––dare I say it––agitated commentary ever to see airtime. Ordinarily calm, even-handed, and intellectually honest, Fox was thrust unwittingly into the unfamiliar realm of the angry political diatribe when a guest lost his calm and flaunted his nasty, baseless feelings before the entire nation.
