Boston Bombings

Just curious as to how much (if any) coverage of this there was outside the US?

[Scarlet]

There was quite a lot of coverage of it here [UK] it was the main headlines for a couple of days and there definitely updates on how it progressed. Also, discussions of the whole reddit-caboodle-disaster-thingy were heard and I saw a lot of criticism of the bed-side hearing. This may just be the news I read though.

I assume in the US there was pretty much wall to wall coverage?

[comrade_general]

For a time there was yeah. Also when this happened: http://www.cnn.com/2013/05/09/justice/ohio-rescued-women-developments

Did you get any news reports against what the government were doing? Do you ever?

We got that too.

To be honest being inside the Cambridge bubble means I'm a little more out of touch with this stuff that I'd usually be.

Depends which news station you watch, usually get something different.
But I don't watch the news that often, as in listening to what they have to say about things, I just try to learn enough to know exactly what happened and spare myself the news stations' theoretical ramblings.

Probably a good plan. It's often hard to separate them to be honest, annoyingly.
