  1. Most of us here can`t be bothered with our own politics let alone another country`s. So just why is there so much media coverage ? I`m interested in your opinions as to why.

    Perhaps simply because it gives them something to go on about all day? Those news channels have to fill twenty-four hours of programming each and every day, and it can't be easy. Even using political filler it's repetitious, imagine if they didn't even have that!

    Your 'location' says that you are in New York. That would explain it.

    Because ...

    the USA is the lone superpower left these days. That's why.
