I thought this was a very detailed Blog. The usage of the two videos at the bottom of the post were very shocking and it really captured my attention.

The video images on the cbs site was huge attention grabber. It sparked interest in me and made me want to inform myself about the event. Though I've never visited this site before, it seemed to be useful and very easy to navigate. I would consider using this site for news in the future.
