Not impressed by the much larger amount of coverage accorded to the terrorist attach in Kenya to that in Pakistan, despite the similar numbers of dead and injured.
I don't quite see quite why Kenya should be so much more newsworthy than Pakistan. Both of them are former British colonies, both have troubled pasts. Pakistan is a lot more Muslim than Kenya but I do not think that is the difference. One hopes, probably vainly, that it is something more edifying than some fraction of the Kenyan victims being white.
