Ok, I know this was news a day or two ago, but WHY is it hardly being covered? It was like 4th in the rank of headlines the day it happened! Surely this stuff is headline? A fire sank this big ferry? I dont think so, something is a miss :confused:

"The ship vanished after setting sail for Safaga on Thursday evening, but no distress signal was said to have been received by Egyptian officials."

"They are not telling us anything," shouted a man named Gedir Mohammed, according to the Reuters news agency.

spokesman, Suleiman Awad, said "the speed at which the ship sank and the fact there were not enough life rafts on board confirm that there was a [safety] problem".

Just seems a little odd that so many die and its of so little concern/coverage

Very constructive,

I think mainly its due to it looking like someone is to blame, so untill they find who is at fault its going to be kept quiet I think, as for not being covered I have seen it on every news I have seen, they just dont know what happened.

yes, Im not saying its not being covered at all I just mean it isn't being given much headline space. Lesser matters, I feel, have been given more focus. The fact it is that area of the world heightens my suspicions too.
