Antarctic Wilkins Ice Shelf Collapse: Media recycles photos and storylines from previous years

You’re not going to believe this… but the media is recycling photos and headlines from previous years:
From the Nat Geo story:
“[It’s] an event we don’t get to see very often,” Ted Scambos, lead scientist at the U.S. National Snow and Ice Data Center in Boulder, Colorado, said in a press statement.
Now, how is it that an ice shelf breaks up in the spring of 2008 and again in the spring of 2009 and it’s “not very often”? Hmmm.
