Earthquake! Tsunami! Quick, check your wallet!

So naturally, I jumped out of bed and went straight to Google news results for “Japan earthquake.” This is what I got:

Seriously? Almost every result I get is not about the quake, but about how it will effect the economy. I understand that’s important too, but come on. The largest quake the world has felt in six years and a tsunami to boot. People dying, homes and property destroyed, and Businessweek has one of the only headlines that’s not about shares, markets, or currencies (but guess what that article is about).
