Crawford Kilian, or Crof as he is known by most of Flublogia, is probably best known for his H5N1 Crofsblog – but he is also the author of roughly 20 fiction and non-fiction books and an impressive number of articles and essays.
Crof often writes for The Tyee, an online magazine about life and politics in British Columbia. Today, Crof has an article on how the global media, and in particular the media in North America, has largely blown the coverage of the H1N1 pandemic.
It’s a thoughtful essay, and very much worth your time. So take a detour to The Tyee to read:
