The news is news though innit. If someone has been shot/stabbed, there's a war whatever, then it has to be reported as the most people who watch the news want info on such current issues. If the news wasn't full of such shiz, what do you want it to be full of- its not news otherwise! Perhaps if you watched Channel Four News you would see that they do actually report on more world wide topics, and do tackle third world issues etc along with more local 'stories'.
The reson not every African child death is reported on UK news is that quite obviously there is a death every minwah, it would never be off the screens. Here, thank goodness, its considered quite barbaric and worthy of reporting that one teenager has shot another for nothing other than amusment. In America its commonplace, so these days unless its summat meaty then its not usually on the google box. As for the child labour (an obviously on going problem), it is reported form time to time when developments occur.
At the end of the day you could simply choose not to watch it if you dislike it so. I can't stand Grandstand and don't like its content, so i watch something else.
