@harrybo93 @WendyMsGator Yes, this is so frustrating!
Whenever there's an emergency or disaster overseas, they do this. All. The. Time.
"Over 1000 people were killed, INCLUDING THREE AUSTRALIANS."
Heavy emphasis on the three Australians.
The implication being that if Dave from Narre Warren and his two mates weren't unfortunate enough to be in the wrong place at the wrong time, then the other 9,997 people wouldn't rate a mention.
And then when there's a disaster in some corner of the world that's somehow free of Australian tourists, especially outside a country in the OECD, the story barely gets a mention at all!
