Where's Mubarak?

by Chris Bodenner

A reader raises a good point:

An hour and a half ago, the government announced Mubarak was going on TV.  He still hasn't. There are now reports that protesters are storming the broadcasting studios.  I think the fact Mubarak hasn't showed up yet is really important, but has sort of been forgotten in the excitement.

Update: a reader translates:

FYI, the writing on the signs bearing Mubarak’s image say “Dictator Mubarak – Get out of Egypt.”
