I just saw a man commenting on CNN en EspaƱol about how is a shame there are so little videos or reports of the victims (people). He textually said "but there is a great video of people in the metro." Then he started talking about Japanese culture, how reserved they are; it's all due "a philosophy he doesn't know the name of" and other exoticizing shit.
Seriously? How shameless can the "tragedy porn" wanting get?

The guy was inside the studio talking with the host who was a woman, he made similar arguments about the difference on the West vs Japan coverage, but didn't mention the nuclear central.
So it's really a CNN thing.
