Perhaps hearing the public outcry about the tenor of the media coverage towards Israel, CNN last night ran a vivid report from correspondent Nic Robertson during Anderson Cooper's live report from Israel, showing a rocket attack and its immediate aftermath from the point of view of Israelis living in the border town of Sderot. The report showed people waiting in a bomb shelter, waiting for the explosion, and their reaction when it went off. Chilling stuff. Fortunately, no one was hurt. Cooper himself did a report from an Israeli police station, showing a storage area where police have collected all the rockets that have fallen on Sderot since the conflict began. Also chilling. So at least there is some attempt being made to show the Israeli point of view on this. Points for Anderson Cooper.
