Mediterranean region news coverage in rest of world
I just posted a link to an interesting and pertinent story from Italy, filed for National Public Radio in the US. What I realized as I did was how oftern we hear there and read and see/hear elsewhere from those countries around the Mediterranean where there is a permanent correspondent and how rarely we hear from or about the others. Does nothing as interesting ever happen there? Not a chance, and the Italian story is a perfect example in that similarly concerning legislative initiatives pop up on occasion in all of the other two dozen Mediterranean countries. Why shouldn't they all be addressed or at least put in some sort of context that involves neighbors and regions?
Languages - "Books of The Times - In ‘Globish,’ Robert McCrum Traces the Spread of English" - NYTimes.com
How to apply this and other information to what is happening or might happen to languages in the Mediterranean, including English?

"The Associated Press: Greek PM denounces deaths of bank workers in riots"
From the story:
"....and journalists also walked off the job, suspending television and radio news broadcasts.
Some media — including state television and the Ta Nea newspaper Web site — later broke the strike to report on the deaths."
