Welcome To World Watch
As we watch an unprecedented worldwide economic crisis, two unresolved conflicts in Iraq and Afghanistan, and the foreign policy of a new American president, our global connections have never been more important. That's why we're launching World Watch. In addition to our international news coverage, World Watch provides a blog in which the men and women of CBS News, our eyes and ears around the world, showcase their original reporting. We want to provide added insight and analysis that are hallmarks of CBS News. World Watch will also link you to important and interesting stories covered by other international media. To be sure, it's a work in progress. We welcome all thoughtful comments, questions, and criticisms in our Comments area. In the end, we hope to bring you closer to the global events and issues that shape our lives and our future.
