This would be easier to confirm in Asia, where Asian CNN offers a special half-hour of American news, recently sponsored by American Airlines, introduced with an American flag and swelling music that sounds vaguely like the advertising of Archer Daniels Midland. The CNN show doesn't tell you much about what is happening in the U.S., but does offer a sense of broad themes, always welcome. No such program exists in Santiago, and the Chilean press writes mostly about Chile, or about continents other than North America, though also the Oscars. 35,000 stray dogs condemned to death. Termites invade city.
Soccer players get on plane.
Nor does the internet help. As you are no doubt already aware, Reddiaz, technologists' claims of a seamless, shrinking world prove somewhat exaggerated in practice. It is still the case that when you leave a place, you are no longer there, and can't easily access that place's resources, even with a laptop. For example, you can read about how Gore appears to be defending his campaign manager, who was already run out of Congress on a rail, and now seems to have borrowed three hundred thousand dollars illegally in Portugal. But this is difficult to sense as relevant in Chile.
