It reinforces what we already know: while our priorities are on Brad Pitt, etc, other parts of the world have their eye on other matters.

Actually, that interpretation may not be entirely correct. I have a book that I have been meaning to read and one of the arguments that it makes is that there is a noticable backlash occuring towards science and technology in the entertainment industry. People have become jaded with technology and science. It is a completely different scenario than the one in the article but the argument can be made especially from some of the anime I have seen.
