I have to agree with the writer that foreign media sure reports differently than their U.S. counterparts. It gives me the impression that Europeans actually read about world events, unlike their American counterparts who seem more interested in Brittany Spear's fitness for motherhood.

The downside from my recent 2 1/2 weeks in Europe is that I'm not multi-lingual, so I couldn't read anything other than the International News. It was also a vacation from TV and newspaper and radio.
