Americans in Trouble!

As shocking as the attacks in India were this weekend, what was even more shocking was the way the media executed the stories. I was flipping the channels for about an hour this thursday trying to get some solid information about the events that were occuring; however, I could only get information on how many Americans were captured, if the American diplomats were safe, and new tips on American tourism spots for visiting countries where bombings and slaughters happened frequently. What was surprising to me was that there were at least 300 other people wounded, and over 150 killed who were not American, and I didn't find this out until much later. What happened to the other tourists and citizens from different countries? Do they get any mention in the news, or do we just care about ourselves? It really inspired me to think critically about the media and its biases for our people, rather than thinking of everyone else in the world.
