"And as much of a tragedy the VT shootings were, I'm still hate the fact that 32 college students can get more media coverage than all the people slain in the genocide in Africa because they were American, from a wealthy (white) area, and educated."
I'm not sure if you know this, but we live in America. I think that is a pretty good reason why there is more media coverage of American's being killed than that of Africans. Don't get me wrong, the despicable human rights violations around the world should be covered. However, I think you are naive to think that Americans care more about what is going on in other countries than what is happening in their own backyard.
