America's 24-hour cable news channels is generally insufferable: The way journalism gets trumped by a cult of personality, the way speculation and editorializing is passed off as "analysis," the way talking heads recycle the news du jour in ideological rants. Still, some tragedies are so epic -- like the earthquake in Haiti -- they actually demand the scope of all-day coverage. And occasionally, amid all the ruin and hopelessness, cable personalities emerge as something like heroes. This time around, that person appears to be CNN chief medical correspondent, neurosurgeon at Emory University and the man-who-was-almost-surgeon-general, Dr. Sanjay Gupta.
