It is sad that the western world should consider us third world people sub-human. BBC is better, hands down, than, say, CNN in reporting the news from Nepal. They ran a story on one of the Nepali victims -- very touching it was. But the rest of the western media are clearly only concerned with making money and it does not matter to them wherther somebody as unimportant as a Nepali, who does little to fill there coffers, lives or dies. But as Biruwa points out,BBC is also not immune to overlooking the globally 'unimportant' issues, as those of Nepal.
