A friend of mine on Facebook asked about how effective the emergency response has been along with the media coverage.
Here's part of my answer:
The biggest problem is the mud is so thick and treacherous that rescue workers can't get very far into the disaster area. News crews are kept at a distance for their own safety and so they don't get in the way of rescue teams. So they're left on the outskirts with little to do but speculate--like they've been doing about Flight MH370--and wait for press conferences.
Here's the latest from the Seattle Times: They are finding people now: Grim mudslide search expands.
