European News

UPDATE 1/22/2006 - OK, I feel badly that the whale died. But that does not change the sentiment of the original post (in fact, the extreme coverage of that compared to the lack of coverage of the Canadian election pretty much highlights what I was trying to say).

Why is it that we never see anything in the news about Europe unless it revolves around an American issue? This is really quite unacceptable. They are as important, if not more so, than the US - but the biggest stories we get are about whales in the Thames or Princes in the Army.

American centric views of the world will get us nowhere people. Start reviewing the BBC.com if you want some more real information.
