Why is that? Is that because of a lot of US owned newscasts? Why does the rest of the world care so much about a hurrican in the US? (or, i should say, why do the brodcast companies care so much?) My Indian friends are always amazed at how, when a few people die in the US from weather, it makes huge national news in the US. Natural disasters in India with anything short of 1000 deaths barely makes their local news...
