Kinda makes you wonder...

A friend of this blog pointed out that the new Taser Man targeting guidelines, which really hit the Canadian news starting late last week, is being completely ignored (up to now) by the media in the USA.

Fair Use / Fair Dealing claimed

I just checked for myself using Google.com News.

The story is very well covered by Canadian news outlets, in spite of this being the Canadian Thanksgiving Day weekend.

The story is making headlines in Australia.

Reuters news agency mentioned it.

And although it's logically impossible to prove a negative, I can find ZERO mention of this important development in any US news outlet.

More likely to be apathy and low journalistic standards than conspiracy. But it's enough to make you wonder...
