You will occasionally come across TV reports of "foreign
news" - where foreign means out-of-state!


UK TV News isn't a lot better.

But it's incomparably better than American tv news.


That's not difficult. :-)

BBC TV main news often only contains a few items.


Then it goes on to BBC regional news for whatever UK region viewers
in Britain live in.

I've never seen BBC UK news, national or regional, refer to any UK
events/news as "foreign news".

Janet.


But as those living to the West of the Seven Bridge know, anything to
the East of the bridge IS foreign.
