I think the problem with media is this:

When you are abroad, you can calmly observe swathes of people changing their culture.

I mean a broad definition of "changing" which includes criticizing, destroying, enriching, subverting, etc, etc.

When you are at home, you observe swathes of people changing your culture, living in which is beneficial to you. And there is nowhere else to go to get the same culture. (And media primarily report on the changes that you'd disagree with.) And switching to another culture is kinda expensive.
