The odd thing was, I switched on Al Jazeera, yet it had wall-to-wall Boston, and all the time I watched they never mentioned the day of utter carnage in Iraq either.
I get how bad planting bombs is, but on the same day, around 90 Americans will have dies on US roads, a similar number will have died of gunshot wounds, and each of their deaths will be an equal tragedy to their loved ones. I really hate it when they select something like this to go wall-to-wall and on endless loop. Clearly 2 deceased in USA is worth factors more than 50 in Iraq.
I could even understand US stations giving it saturation coverage in a way, but why does it justify taking over UK screens for days? Who makes these decisions?
