Agreed you can t dwell on every death that occurs in the world, my main annoyance is that a Typhoon like the one that hit the Phils, devastated many lives and should at least get some kind of a mention, i certainly never saw it in any news item except bbc asian section on the web. Also today the same Typhoon hit China and Japan, regrettably again many lose homes and many dead, this though made the main headlines as i said before is it because these are more recognised as developed nations??. All this is just an observation and I know thats the way it is. Seems a shame that our news is mostly about overpaid celebs having some kind of mishap etc, when real news if not important to us is brushed under the carpet.
