It's pretty mainstream news if you are in Europe.
- singold 13y agoI'm in south america and it is on the news too
- jfoutz 13y agoI'm in the USA, it's not about snow or football, so it's (embarrassingly) not front page news on the various tv news sites. It is showing up on the nytimes & washington post. so that's something.
- daveslash 13y agoI'm in the USA, am I'm aware of it - but only because I listen to NPR on my commute and I'm signed up for the Quartz Daily Newsletter (qz.com - I recommend it). Unfortunately, neither are hugely popular news sources in the US (outside of certain circles).
- maaarghk 13y agoWow, that's pretty shocking. It's HUGE news in Europe.
- saryant 13y agoIt's definitely been on CNN. The elevators in my building have little TVs playing CNN all day long so I get it in 30 second snippets.
- jfoutz 13y agoWhen i posted, i went to the front page of msnbc, cnn, and fox and did ctrl-f ukraine. Fox has something now. Actually on tv is probably different.
- alan_cx 13y agoIm normally all for having a go at Americans for being so insula, and not realising there is a rest of the world out there, well, the NSA know, but, you know... stereotypes and all that. But in all fairness, the Ukraine borders the EU and there are political ties or ambitions there concerning the EU. No, I don't know all the details and I wont pretend to, but ultimately, it affects the EU. The US, on the other hand, is a world away and frankly what goes on in the Ukraine is not exactly a big deal to the US or its people. Yes, on a being informed of big events in the world level, it should be reported in the US, but I can understand the US not being that interested. Im sure there are levels of concern for the US, but its a much bigger deal to us in Europe.
