I'm not exaggerating. The majority of American viewers are absolutely removed from these things, these countries, these problems. If the events in the Caucasus are covered in the US, then it's only in elite newspapers like the New York Times or the Washington Post, but their print-runs are minimal. We live in the mystery genre. It's no accident that the books and films of this genre are in high demand.
Mystery is the lifestyle of the country.
And the mass media build this up in our consciousness. This all intertwines into a grandiose feature, in which the main player is the government. And to create this detective story in the press, you simply have to ignore the presumption of innocence. It doesn't exist in our country. They have an excuse.
