10. somehow different (European Media)
There were extended reports about looting in Brookly(very minor) and Ottawa (not so minor), and the sorry state of the US power grid.
Of course there were comparisons to the French/German/EU grid, and how a clusterfuck like that couldn't possibly happen.
There were talks about failed privatization.

There was symphaty for people sleeping on the streets, sometimes far from home and fear for patients in hospitals not sporting working emergency generators.
