You are suggesting that google searching "muslim violence thailand" is how people should have to find out about violence in Thailand?
I am suggesting that a claim that issues are not covered in the media don't stand up very well when issues are covered in the media.
BTW this "muslim violence" thing, is that because its people who are muslims killing people who are muslims?
Can we have the next killings in Mexico described as Christian violence?

Watch a 30 minute evening news show, and it doesn't even get a bullet.
Wow thats amazing, surely they can fit it in between the stories about heavy traffic, a cat in a tree and ain't it looking like sunshine next week .

Even if it gets covered by major outlets (meaning there is a story about it on their site, someplace), you need to dig to find it, it doesn't get put on the front page as a bullet, you need to dig.
You mean that if you want a story about a local issue on the fareast you have to go to the section that deals with news from the far east.
Though maybe its in the world news section and you have to go there to find it which is a bit of a bugger as world news doesn't make the front page unless its a really big important issue....which a hundred year old small local seperatist conflict isn't really.
Hey what about them Corsican seperatists, headline grabbing stuff ain't it.......Oh you probably havn't seen that on the 30 minute evening news as its a media conspiracy and you really have to dig
