Coming from America, I am quite used to my news being conservative, slanted, and focused on the violent or destructive things happening locally and around the world. Things are blurred, cut, and even photoshopped out of media to keep certain images out of view of the public. Here, I was beyond to surprised to be welcomed into the city with barely clothed (very good looking) individuals on billboards and magazines and women's breasts, yes you heard right, BREASTS on the news. Nipple and everything. In the US that just would not fly. Not even close.
Back home, to get a shot of breasts you need to go to special subscription channels, such as HBO or Showtime, other wise there is no breast, even bras are considered scandals. I was taken aback when I was watching a story about the cold weather blowing through Europe (enough already) when all of the sudden, a story about breast implants begins followed by a good minute of shots of naked women sun bathing, walking around, close ups, all shapes and sizes.
The staying up all night lifestyle may have shocked my system a bit but the media has truly caught me off guard.
