    "the 4/10/2008 in the US it is still the 3/10/2008- .."

    hey rabbitgoose, here is something for you to put your thinking hat on:

    It is Saturday Oct 4 in Australia but still Friday Oct 3 in the US.

    The question: with this age of instant communication, how does the US media report (on Oct 3) something that has happened, for example and accident, in Australia ? They cannot possibly say something along the line of "an accident took the life of ... on Saturday", bearing in mind it is still Friday in the US ?

    I have always wondered about how they overcome this difernt time zone problem in this age of almost instant communication.
