US media vs world media

It's frustrating and embarrasing to see much of the media here
covering serious policy, global action and climate impact in educated
detail while the American Media provides 24 hour coverage of the
Tiger Woods scandal and ginning false climate controversy. The fossil
fuel PR firms must be thrilled at the success they are having in
deploying corporate media distraction 'news'. Over 100,000 people
from around the world converged in a peaceful climate solidarity march
yesterday and barely a footnote in the news.... instead the heasline
is a story about a few hooligans that got arrested.

The march was great and full of youthful energy for climate action....
Desmond Tutu led the final mile.

With hope.
