News

I watched the news last night. I was wanting to find out more about what was happening in Honduras (it's not really affecting us here- even though they did fly the President into Costa Rica orginally).
One thing that still shocks me about the news here is how graphic it is. There is a new murder every night and they film right next to the body and then show the body upclose. It's like a horror movie, except that it's the 7pm news that everyone watches over dinner. I' not sure what explains this culturally, but I'm looking forward to ratings when I get home.
