To Save $$, MSNBC Packs Up For The Holiday During Mumbai Crisis
So, while Fox and CNN were covering American casualties and the continuing firefight at the Taj Hotel (respectively), MSNBC instead aired a vid of "sanitation enforcement agents" caught on tape parking in front of a fire hydrant. Aaron Barnhart neatly stitched together the collection of segments for your viewing convenience.

John M commented:
This story has so many holes in it it isn't funny. Go back, re-check the coverage that day and the coverage over the weekend. MSNBC sure didn't cover it every minute of every day, but they did make regular updates of it. The linked article is so dripping with bias that it's almost un-readable.
