"Hey, it didn't happen in America at rush hour so who cares? In more important news there's a stall in the number four lane on the I-5 southbound and, next, we'll have Mary covering the .1 inch of rainfall we had last night in the STORM WATCH!!! segment. Back to you, Tom, at the petting zoo where the pandas just arrived!"

American TV news is pitiful. Which is why I'm on FR for my morning news.
What is it that you want? Do you measure how much America cares by how much time we spend in front of the TV not learning anything new about the disaster? I watched less TV news for the past few days because all they reported on was the disaster. I know all about it, what is the use in subjecting myself to endless amounts of people stating and restating that the Tsunami happened and a lot of people died?
