Senator Edward Kennedy should also be remembered for his awareness initiatives and strong protests during the systematic genocide carried on by the Pakistani government on its eastern enclave during 1970-71. It is a story “retold” to me as my parents migrated as minority Hindu refugees from East Pakistan (presently Bangladesh) during the “Great Divide” of India at the twilight of British Rule (1946-47).

The incidents of 1970-71 were equally horrific and Edward Kennedy had displayed his strength of character through his initiatives and protests even standing up against the “official position” of his own United States government driven by compulsions of Cold War adjustments.

Sayan.

As an American Expat in Turkey i was very much disappoınted in CNN for not covering the funeral in Boston of Sen Ted Kennedy. After programming went to "Inside Africa" I had to switch to BBC who had the whole funeral. I think someone in the news division should take another look at programming prıorıtıes.

While the redesign of the site is cute, there hiesght responsibility is to the information they broadcast to the largest audience. That is still TV. And I must say that CNN is increasingly incomplete and unsatisfactory on their coverage of the news. I am actually a big fan of the content available online for there Latino in America series. However what they broadcasted for the largest audiences was terribly incomplete and unoriginal. Cute site, but substance is king. so far I will judge them as a bit of smoke and mirrors.
