I have only the CNN and FOX News channel international feeds to base this on, but it seems like the most important story is the on-going drama of the horrible loss of America's misunderstood sweetheart.
I just hope that the troops in Iraq and Afganistan will not be overly affected by this loss of an icon who symbolized what's real about the American Dream and everything that is good and right with the United States. Indeed, embodying a truth about the American culture that is on the same level as all the other reasons why those brave men and women are laying their lives on the line.
You wouldn't believe what some of the news companies in other countries are considering news worthy. It's hard to imagine places where the people are so backward that they consider the following as more important than America's great tragedy and loss of Anna Nicole Smith.
Take a look:

Granted, these are European companies, what would they know about sensitive American stories? What a bunch of boring crap! Who can America turn to and trust for true unblemished news and information other than CNN and FOX?
FOX in particular, as well as their promise of fairness and balance how can you get more patriotic love for the U.S.?
(I have heard the most vicious rumors that News Corp is Australian owned and Rupert Murdoch is not an American! I'm sure that is more slanderous treachery on the part of the anti-American crowd who should be glad they live in a country where they aren't tossed in jail for saying such things.)
I think even a true American hero of journalistic integrity like William Randolph Hearst would be proud of our modern day news sources.
Well don't worry what European Socialist-commie twerps think is news worthy. Here a few recent items that a certain fortunate fool thought you probably wouldn't be interested in either.
These items are from a country that "some people" suggest fits the dictionary definitions of "tyranny" and "terrorism".
tyranny: arbitrary or unrestrained exercise of power; despotic abuse of authority, dominance through threat of punishment and violence.
terrorism: the unlawful use or threatened use of force or violence by a person or an organized group against people or property with the intention of intimidating or coercing societies or governments, often for ideological or political reasons.
Where the government is constantly lying to the people and at every turn ignores the rule of it's most basic law and is in constant breach of the legal and social contract between itself and the people it dominates.
Sadly, the propaganda which has existed for so long has these poor people demanding to fight, kill and die in order to protect the whole fraudulent system. (Talk about an example of the Matrix.)
After the U.S. straightens out the middle east and a few other places, we should really see about bringing freedom and democracy and the rule of law to this sad country.
OOps, I lost the links.
Oh well. Anyway here are some cases currently before the highest court of a country that believes in keeping it's citizens in their right-fulll place, the US of A:

This has more to do with protecting america from non citizens trying to hurt us http://www.scotusblog.com/movabletype/archives/2007/02/circuit_court_a_1.html
Here's some guy who thinks that it could be used against us! What a silly thing to say! He's lucky he's an American or maybe he'd really have something to worry about!

Still, just a bit of fluff for you if you get bored and there is a break in the Anna Nicole case before American Idol comes on. Americans have the right to prioritize their free time. What's freedom without free time?
That's as crazy as having to move or sweat to loose wieght.
Please pass me the lard and the diet pills, I think those new reality shows are on soon, Inmates running the Assylum and Patriot Island! I can't wait! Plug me in!
Satire (n.) - An obsolete kind of literary composition in which the vices and follies of the author's enemies were expounded with imperfect tenderness. In this country satire never had more than a sickly and uncertain existence, for the soul of it is wit, wherein we are dolefully deficient, the humor that we mistake for it, like all humor, being tolerant and sympathetic. Moreover, although Americans are 'endowed by their Creator' with abundant vice and folly, it is not generally known that these are reprehensible qualities, wherefore the satirist is popularly regarded as a sour-spirited knave, and his every victim's outcry for codefendants evokes a national assent." [Ambrose Bierce]
