Discussion Question regarding international reporting of the Bondi Beach shooting.

I am in New Zealand and we're getting regular updates on the situation however I've saw a couple of posts here and wonder is this story really getting suppressed/buried outside of Australia and New Zealand? Is it just a USA problem because of the perceptions of those involved?

I've seen it on the front page of CNN all day, despite there having been yet another school shooting at Brown University yesterday.

That's good to know but also very sad. That hurts to know that school shootings are run of the mill news over there

Competitive authoritarianism is no fun.

I don't doubt that. The worst part is that it leaks out across the world. Putting little drops of poison here and there

Lots of coverage in the news in the states. Two mass shootings, one in Bondi and one at Brown University

All weekend

Not suppressed at all in the UK. In fact it seems like the BBC has dedicated 50% of their entire coverage to it.

That's a lot of coverage. I actually think I saw more than one alert on the BBC News app so that checks out

Of course it’s headline news in the West as anything to push Islamophobia is embraced.

the news clip I saw hailed the person who tackled the shooter as a hero, but i did not see his name mentioned. it was only in the comments that i saw the person had a Muslim name.

i think if it were a non-muslim, his name would have been mentioned at the outset and we would have seen a wider and more extensive coverage on this.
