Did you just make your generalization of Americans based on the movie "anger management"?

Nah, partial analysis of extremist Christian groups in the US. :lol: Don't worry, I know too well that that's far from the actual truth.

News is like that across the entire western world, haven't you ever watched Newswipe?

In comparison with the Swiss and German media I'm acquainted with, I'd say the tendency towards "alerting journalism" isn't as strong as it is in the US media and some special communities (you know... Christians...).

I saw news clips of German news when there was a school shooting a couple years ago. Was just like American news except not in English, and somewhat fewer "What do YOU think" segments.

I'm pretty sure you've read about those cases in the US, where D&D was blamed for murder, suicide and corruption of the youth with satanic influence and what not as well. :) The hunt for scapegoats is happening all over the world, all the time (just think of those people who blame Obama for an accident that was a giant oil firm's fault etc.), it's just that in the US, journalists, religious groups and concerned $placeholder like to do that a lot. :)
