Uk news coverage (Aljazeera H/W)


The statistics in the Aljazeera do not compare to the statistics that are shown in UK news as the coverage of terrorist attack is shown to have impacted Asia more, showing Pakistan to be the greatly affected country. The article further explains how western Europaccounted for only a small proportion of the total bloodshed which was signified to have effected Europe more, when in actuality that was not the case. I do not believe this is fair because, the news has been manipulated and showcased to the western population to be effecting them more which is bias because it's not covering the whole truth and the statistics which effect other countries therefore this follows the idea of otherness. This story would not be covered in the UK because it doesn't effect the UK therefore the industry will not see the need to broadcast this as it's not seen as newsworthy.
