Paralympics success

[icytailmark]

Australia is currently in 2nd place and are doing better then (non disabled athletes). However where is the coverage channel 9? Everyday they had on olympics news on the front page. Go look today on the ninemsn website front page. It says alot of the attitudes towards disabled people in Australia. It might come to a surprise for people but disabled athletes have to work their butts off (sometimes even more then non-disabled athletes) to win medals.

I tried t oget info on their progress and found it rather difficult to get. i agree that Nine are lax in reporting, but the ABC is worse - the coverage is far from being a stellar coverage of their event. Even the papers are slack - cant find much to do with the medal tally or the events themselves. its really chalk and cheese between both events
