CNN.com - Tsunamis shatter celebrity holidays - Dec 28, 2004
BANGKOK, Thailand (AP) -- A German statesman, a Czech super model and a Swedish Olympic ski champion were among the vacationers whose search for peace and sun in tropical southern Asia was shattered by the tsunamis that spared neither rich nor poor.
Too pathetic for words. I didn't expect to need this category again so soon.
Update: It's an AP wire story, though so far only CNN has used that headline. As of 7:15 Central Time, Google finds 281 uses of the first paragraph. Most seem to use some variation of "Celebrities Among Victims of Tsunami."
Maybe there is a positive side to this. Maybe those who live vicariously through TV will better grasp the extent of the disaster, and be moved to help.
