    Fox, like most American TV networks, is giving scant coverage to his trip. Very strange.

    Chinese state media snipe at Obama's Africa trip


    BEIJING (AP) — China's state media are pouring cold water on President Barack Obama's visit to Africa, saying U.S. attention to the continent is largely due to concern over China's booming influence there.
    The U.S., it said, is "taking China as a rival in Africa."

    In contrast to China's steady and fair-minded interactions with Africa, the U.S. "obviously lacks a consistent Africa policy," said the paper, published by the ruling Communist Party's flagship People's Daily. It cited what it said was Obama's "cold shoulder" to the continent during his first term as an example of U.S. inattentiveness.

    The official Xinhua News Agency took a similar tone, criticizing what it described as ineffective U.S. aid programs for Africa while touting China's own projects, largely in roads, dams and other infrastructure.

    "Obama may have to work even harder if he wants to build his legacy on a continent where U.S. commitment has long been questioned," Xinhua said.

    Obama huddled with Ethiopia's leaders Monday for talks on counterterrorism, human rights and regional security issues, including the crisis in neighboring South Sudan.

    His visit to Ethiopia, the first by a sitting U.S. president, followed a stop in Kenya, his late father's homeland.

    China's economic ties with Africa have soared in recent years, with two-way trade in 2013 — the last year for which figures were available — hitting a record $200 billion, mainly in Chinese imports of African oil, copper and other raw materials.

    U.S. trade with Africa has fallen, meanwhile, hitting $85 billion in 2013.
