So what are you talking about?
yes, people usually care more when it happens close to home. but if you pay close attention or watch the news, you will see that american or even european lives tend to be more valuable to the media/news. when i say no one cares i didn't really mean the general public but i meant that it doesn't get as much attention. yes, it is natural to care more about deaths in your own country however, not to ONLY care about those and choose not to report other deaths (possibly caused by your country) again, i am talking about reporters and the media. and not even all reporters, just most. i didn't mean the average american but i obviously didn't make that clear enough with my previous statements. i hope this makes more sense.
