Particularly here in Australia, we are so laid back, it's almost as if we don't care what is going on in the rest of the world. We have the good life. That seems to be the attitude here sometimes. Morning television here is more focused on the Victoria's secret latest fashion show than Syria and the daily atrocities that are taking place there. It was a brutal slaughter of innocent children that were killed by the knife some of them infants. I think each incident is horrific and evil, no matter the location or situation that brings about these events.
I don't know why the media chooses to focus on particular events and whether this is studied and explained at an academic level. There must be a reason why we are shown such events in graphic detail and other incidents are all but ignored. Maybe there might be politics and profits before people.
