Wow, these are all really surprisingly and disappointingly conventional and mainstream.
If someone had told me these were the BBC's top stories of the year, I would have bought it.
- johnswamps 16y agoHere are CNN's top stories for comparison: http://www.cnn.com/interactive/2010/12/specials/timeline.year.in.review/index.html?hpt=C1 http://www.cnn.com/interactive/2010/12/specials/timeline.yea... (warning: uses a timeline that you have to click through instead of a list, but it's fairly painless for a timeline)
- gnosis 16y agoLooks like it has some of the same stories, but it's definitely much more US-focused. But that's definitely the case for virtually all the major US media, which are very much in to US navel-gazing. The BBC is much more international in scope, and is much closer to Al Jezeera in that sense.
