It's not only the case of what is news worthy, but how the news is prioritized.

For example the lead story on one of Melbourne's commercial stations last night was not the Haiti earthquake disaster, but the Victorian assistant police commissioner caught exceeding the speed limit by 10 km/r last October.

It's a sad reflection on us, if the news is prioritized based on the perception on what the viewing public deems as being more important.
