    The Media is racist! Why do they have to state the nationality of the little girl that nearly drowned? Why not using a generic term like: visitor, visiting, tourist, etc. to describe the whereabouts of the little girl? What difference does it make where the girl hails from, the main point of the story is the little girl nearly drowned and is in critical condition. I wish the little girl a speedy recovery and at only 3 years old WHERE WAS the parents in all of this? Smh
