While crime is at the higher end of the spectrum for an industrial nation, its nothing unusual. Reporting and coverage on the other hand...
A related issue is content, its quite puritanical. You can have as much violence as you like but there better not be any sexuality. Just look at the film ratings: G, PG, PG-13, R. Children, Families, older Children, 'Adults'. The only real distinction is the level of violence - and even thats getting blurred when you consider films like Transformers and The Dark Knight, or maybe a few more dirty words. Being from a Hollywood studio or independent can also have a suspicious influence.
