FRONTLINE | "The Quake" | Trailer | PBS

http://www.pbs.org/frontline/haiti FRONTLINE bears witness to the devastation in Haiti and asks: can the world do better in the face of the next natural disaster? "The Quake" airs Tuesday, March 30 at 9PM on PBS (check local listings).

On January 12, 2010, one of the most devastating earthquakes in recorded history leveled Port-au-Prince, Haiti. Those responsible for handling the catastrophe, including the Haitian government and the United Nations, were amongst the victims and struggled to respond. FRONTLINE correspondent Martin Smith bears witness to the scale of the disaster and examines the ill-coordinated relief efforts. Drawing on interviews with key officials and humanitarian experts from Port-au-Prince to Washington, The Quake asks whether the world can do better. And how?

Can't wait to see this program, especially with Martin Smith as producer and correspondent--a thoughful, serious journalist presenting a serious issue.

Thanks PBS, just what I wanted to explore... with all the controversial claims, it's a good thing to see what really goes on in Haiti right now, and how are we all going to help to make it better

Out of the ashes of poor people's misery will rise profitable business opportunities for multi-national corporations. It always does. What a world!
