Re: I have to say something here
The American media tends to ignore accomplishments in other countries that rival their own. I am referring to this image from the PBS article which compares the world's tallest skyscrapers, but completely omits the one that actually holds the title of "world's tallest":
You should know that Toronto, Canada currently has the tallest building in the world - the CN Tower. And soon the world's tallest building may be in China, or Brazil...
I don't expect you to answer for journalists, but I felt I should point that out.
