I've found the UK to be as parochial in its media as the US. It only seemed that way after I lived in the US and then returned to the UK and found myself still listening to the BBC World Service :) reading the Economist etc. The mainstream media were more focused on the UK I found or just as bad as the US ones were focused on the US. In both countries I got the feeling that for many people no other countries count. This is of course much less justified in the UK. Statements like "100,000 people a year die of cancer" (or whatever). They mean British people but don't say so. By contrast Australians (and Israelis) always seem aware that this is a small country on the World scene. Australians are likely to say "100,000 Australians a year die fo cancer". Just some thoughts David
