Spoiler alert! News on the radio...


One thing that I just didn't get about this movie...

So, the news on the radio tell you pretty much what happened: three guys robbed a bank, someone got shot and died, they are on the loose... etc. Therefore Brody's character thinks he's the killer.

But!

He was taken as a hostage in broad daylight, right in front of his wife/girlfriend/whatever, who must have alerted the authorities for sure. As far as the rest of the world is concerned, the three robbers are on the loose holding a hostage, that's a big thing, how come no word of it is given on the news???

Correct me if I'm wrong but didn't the radio cut in and out the towards end of the broadcast? So there is a chance he could've just missed it?

Yes, gayprideemcee is correct. The radio faded out right after that part, so he likely missed the details to which you refer.
