It has been my experience that very often people from different countries living in the United States rely mostly on the information that is provided by their country's media. They distrust the American media yet blindly believe everything they hear via satellite from their own countries of origin. I have seen this with Brazilians, Serbs, Greeks and others and it never ceases to amaze me how disconnected they are from the news we are privy to in this country. Thus, their thoughts and prejudices reflect those officially espoused by their own countries.
