No it isn't. US media doesn't own an exclusive right to comment on affairs of other nation states. Given the status of US economy in the world, what happens in US affects other nations more than what happens there affects US. They have every reason to report this. And journalism is more than just dumping facts. Though, a journalist's idealogical bias should affect the correctness of the article, his experienced analysis is usually necessary for most readers to understand the gist of the situation who are most likely to be unaware of the law/politics/technology behind the incident.
