Story can be found here.
I found this story particularly heartbreaking because 2 years ago, I went to Haiti. I have never seen a more beautiful, yet depressing place in my entire life. Our tour guide told us that one private home on the entire Haitian side of the island has internet service. The children that we saw were starving and underfed. I've traveled around the Caribbean fairly extensively and I've never seen poverty like that before. However, the Haitian people were also by far the most friendly, accommodating and welcoming people that I have ever met in my travels.
The fact that something like this could happen after all of the economic and natural disasters that the people of Haiti have had to endure is awful. I hope that whoever is responsible for the poor conditions of this school is punished accordingly.
As far as the presentation of this story, kudos to CNN.com. It is easy to read and organized, like usual.
