#3 Ah, yes, that's the story that contains this gem of writing:

Hawaii and a number of low-lying islands including Guam were hit by the waves while The Red Cross has warned that the tsunami is higher than many of the islands themselves.

While technically true that many little islands in the Pacific are basically giant sandbars, this sentence makes it seem as if the tsunami is higher than the Hawaiian islands. If a tsunami reaches the top of Mauna Kea (14,000ft), we're all screwed.
