8 Americans dead
I know we had an argument awhile ago about how it is/(is not) insensitive when a News story on a crashed plane in some Foreign country points out the number of dead Americans- "Plane Crashes Killing 250- 4 Americans Among Dead."
Both sides had valid points as I recall. But this morning NYT had the headline "40000 Killed By Tsunami- 8 Americans Among Dead."
Somehow, given the imbalance in the number of significant figures, pointing to the number of Americans seems horribly insenstive. No?
