    A good summary of the situation. Major upheaval in Pakistan, not covered by US media.

      The literal Voice of America is reporting on the cables. Not to mention the fact that an American outlet, the Intercept, is the one that published the leak in the first place…

          I was making a point that even US government funded media is reporting on it. I’ve read about it on Reuters

            How far into Reuters did you have to go before this was mentioned?

            I should have said that mainstream news hasn’t been covering it. A single mention in VOA is not something that almost any American will take notice of, and Reuters news tends to be consigned to the back pages of a print newspaper.
