     @simsa0 None are Main Stream Media in Canada. I suspect most Canadians have not even heard of Al Jazeera, Haaretz is behind a paywall…

     @laurelrusswurm I was wondering the same recently. In these times it when we should work to avoid religious/ethnic strife reporting such stories would be important. In Finland it has been mentioned very marginally in some MSM web newspapers.

     I was just curious because I’ve been innundated with Charlie but it seems our MSM narrative has left huge chunks out to spin the story
