news, today, is global, or at least multinational. it's not truly global; i don't read much news from latin america or africa or china, but i could. an english speaker is going to get their news equally from the united states, canada, australia, the uk, israel, south africa, india and a handful of major european countries including france, germany and probably turkey, regardless of where they physically are in the anglosphere. they may also get some news from russia, china, qatar or iran, amongst others.
your average english speaker knows where they're from but identifies more as a global citizen in a broad alliance than a member of any specific country. these are good things, broadly, as it expands the reach of the english culture and creates a larger sense of cultural identity than these provincial villages we call countries.
