Economist Kenneth Thomas on the media silence regarding Mitt and Ann Romney’s offshore accounts: 
Obama Campaign Maps Romney's Tax Havens, (Almost) No One Notices
If a tree falls in the woods and no one hears it, did it really happen? That's what you've got to wonder in the wake of this week's (non-)coverage of Mitt Romney's tax haven use.
Via Tax Research UK, The Hill reports that the Obama campaign has published a handy map of presumptive opponent Mitt Romney's tax haven holdings around the world. So Tax Research UK obviously noticed. But a search ("Romney tax havens map) of the premium Nexis database shows virtually no one else did. Agence France Presse ran a story the same day (May 1) and India's The Pioneer mentioned it in a story on May 4, but that's the sum total for the week. Running the same search on Google yields the Tax Research UK article and one at The Political Carnival, plus Bob Cesca picking up The Political Carnival and then Political Ruminations picking it up from him.
Where is the U.S. press on this?
“Where is the U.S. press on this?” 
Is the answer that the tax havens of a U.S. presidential candidate aren't important?
Not so much.
