The media obsession with Dubai



As you ascend, so you will also descend. "Laid-Off Foreigners Flee as Dubai Spirals Down" is number 3 in the most frequently e-mailed.

Dubai has been hogging the limelight on the way up, so the media is as interested in bad news now as it was keen on its glittering good news earlier on. I don't envy them. It cannot be helped. If Singapore night F1 race were to ever falter, she can expect similar negative publicity.
