Tenerife in uproar because of just 15 killjoys

There are many stories circulating about the possible suspension of the Tenerife Carnaval. There are those in the media and there is also a certain amount of buzz going on in blogs, which is something that wouldn't have happened a few years ago, not even last year. They say that no publicity is bad publicity, but that remains to be seen. What is interesting is the range of locations in which we are popping up.

The New York Times in the US "ledes" with Please Keep Your Carnival Quiet.
The Guardian in the UK: Court shuts down Tenerife's all-night fiestas
In the Gulf Daily News in Bahrain: 'Noisy' Canaries carnival banned.
Expatica in Spain & Europe: Landmark ruling bans carnival to cut down racket.
Weblogs Inc. Gadling traveller's weblog in the US: Tenerife Just Got Lame.
In The Age, in Australia Fiesta ruled too much of a racket.

These are not all, of course, but a pretty representative sample. My prize though, has to go to the German Press Agency for their thorough and efficient coverage in TheRawStory, Tenerife in uproar over cancellation of carnival, where we learn that "About 15 local residents lodged a complaint". Yes, count them, fifteen!
