EDITORIAL

The pain exploiters The death of six hikers who were swept away by a flash flood along the banks of the Lousios mountain river in southern Greece has left the public in a state of shock. A second shock came when the media, or at least the majority, began covering the event in their usual cannibalistic fashion.
