The flood in Utah


Summary 

Earlier in September there was a flood in the U.S. state of Utah. The flood killed at least 16 people and one person is still missing. Most in the community are members of the Warren Jeffs polygamist sect, known as the FLDS.

BBC  uses a lot of pictures and such in their article. Also, they are detailed about the religious sect and who they are.


CNN has some pictures, but there is a lot of information. They also focus more on the real happenings; they are more specific of how things happened and they base themselves on interviews with the police and major and such.   

The reason that CNN writes more detailed about the news, can be that CNN is an American medium, unlike BBC that is an English medium and is therefore far away from where it happened.
