Why does the media want us to give a shite about this Saudi guy who got chopped?

I honestly can't even imagine what it must feel like to give a shite about this.

He was a media member allied with the Dems’ sugar daddy in the Saudi royal family, so he is news to them.
Then again these are also the kinds of people who cried on camera when Arafat died.

Something something Trump says means things about the media.
I’ll lay it out for everyone that deals in reality. The Saudis, like many of the countries we deal with, have a different way of handing dissidents...they don’t like them and they kill them. Happens all of the time. Now, with that said, do we need the Saudis as a stabilizing force in the ME? For Oil? To keep Iran in check? Yep you bet. Is one killing of this reporter worth jeopardizing China or Russia trying to get in with the Saudis and diminishing our “necessary” relationship with them, NOPE. sucks but thats the reality.
World is full of evil. Sometimes you have to deal with evil for the greater good.

Of all the shite the Saudis have pulled over the last few decades this is the thing we are supposed to sever relations with them over? 
Our media is such a joke. There's something fricky with this situation though. I guess it could be just as innocent as they are mad about a journalist getting killed but I don't know. Tin foil hat engaged.

To show what unadulterated savages we are allied with and continue to excuse even though they did this medeviel horror, but most importantly blew up Lower Manhattan in 2001, the swine.

It was an American resident working for an American company that was tricked into going to a neutral country to meet with the Saudi’s and was cut into pieces.....it is a big deal. Same as the drone strike was or Benghazi.

Uh yeah. Saudis are barbarians. Have been since time immemorial. Is this news to anyone? Who gives a shite about this guy who got turned into a California roll? Bad stuff happens every day to innumerable people. Why am I supposed to care about this one guy?

Not that big a deal. These cats chop off many a people’s heads they don’t like. This is just getting run because Trump talks bad about the media.

Let the skyscreamers tell for another week or so and the typical American “outrage” will fade away like everything else.
Just wait out.

I didn't know that aspect of it. That does change things.

Why? Resident does Not Equal American Citizen.
Not worth jeopardizing the US\ Saudi relationship over one guy.

Ummmmmmmmmmm, no.
Comparing the reporter, who was a resident of US, to the American ambassador and his security detail is foolishness on an epic scale.

Buddy if you think the Saudis don’t torture dissidents you’re nuts.
Just accept that we sometimes have to deal with evil to keep the peace in this world.
The actions of the Saudis is and was no secret.
Christ they chop off the hands of people that are caught stealing...like many Arab nations.
THEIR ACTIONS HERE SHOULD NOT SURPRISE ANYONE

Look, I don't care about the left and right games, I care about right and wrong, the american people does not benefit from this kind of alliances with evil, the only ones that profit from it are the fat cat oligarchs that own our world.

Ha really?
Ok, you may want to do some research about why we are allied with the Saudis.
Like it or not, we need this alliance with them.
They were just dumb to be sloppy with how they got this done.
We are just waiting this out until the American citizenry is distracted by the next shiny object. Will not be mentioned in again in about a week to ten days

I like Oil
I like Israel. I think the Jews would be run into the ocean if not for US involvement over there. I support their nation after what they went through from 1939-1945.
I recognize that the Saudis keep Iran in check
So yeah, i stand by “we” in my statement.

Ok, that is very clear, you are one of "them", nothing else to discuss with you.

I think it has everything to do with him being a reporter. Most of them have an inflated view of their profession. They also want to leave it hanging that if this could happen to him, it could happen to them. Like Trump would have them taken out or something.
