Maybe SK is tackling these issues head on, but from my experience international news tend to always come with a <country> tag in the title, whereas local news comes with a <state or city> tag more accurately. It might be that some countries are doing federal level moves, but I have a feeling we get a foreigner perception bias as news we see from those countries get the country name appended to the title, even if it is a more local or regional phenomena. In the US for instance there might be similar things to the above, but it would read:
New York considers cryptocurrency tax | Californians lock themselves up to escape prison of daily life | The Suicides in Denver, and the Suicide of Denver
But when it comes from a foreign news source, it might contain the country name in the title, rather!
Again, not sure about SK here, but I’ve been curious how much our perceptions are biased by foreign news reaching us in a way that makes the reader think the entire country is doing something great, or terrible.
