The point is, you and Nyororin both claim to have problems with the news, but aside from that, both of you appear to have (relatively) excellent Japanese. In his wildest dreams, OP should be so talented as you two.
That's very nice of you to say, Kyle, but I think Nyororin is well above where I am at.

In my defense, though, words like "multi-car accident", "serial killer", "hedge fund", "stock market", political pressure" etc. do not appear in even University level text books and are not everyday conversational topics, mostly, so I don't feel so bad about not understanding the news as well as I would like.
