Informative video overview of how commodities trading is impacting the lives of people around the world, by raising prices of wheat and other food products. This story is told through a video montage from broadcasters like ABC News, BBC and Al Jazeera, among others. In this episode, there is not as much contrast between these different broadcasters, who all seem to be telling thier piece of the same story. A few comments from the 'bad guys' in this story would have been helpful too, so we could see the story through their eyes. And it's a pleasure to see series narrator Erin Coker appear on camera for the first time - she gives a human face and more transparency to this kaleidoscopic world news report.

This Global Pulse does less comparative analysis of news coverage of the wheat crisis, and instead highlights how the story is very similar around the world. In this case, getting a sense of the degree of impact (how much coverage), in the US vs. Pakistan, for example, would have been put the coverage in context.

This video is a nice round-up of the coverage of the wheat crisis from television news sources from around the world. More a montage of clips than an analysis, the video puts into perspective how different cultures and countries are being impacted by the price inflation.
