    At least you can tell where something happens by place names, I get headlines ‘12 shot in Manchester gun fight’ or ‘Birmingham man kills 8 in roadrage incident’ and there’s just no way of telling it’s America… OK, well those examples are obvious but the point stands.

        Only 8 killed? That’s only a short note on the business page “businesses on main street forced to remain closed all morning due to public kerfuffle”
