The engorged U.S. media posse following Sen. Barack Obama around the world this month is an aberration in these days of shrinking foreign news coverage, but the 200,000 Europeans who heard the Illinois senator speak Thursday in Berlin weren't. There's a thirst for information outside the United States beyond breathless reporting on "Obamamania" - a phenomenon which may be big in Europe, but is largely absent in the Middle East.
