Do you prefer to pay more attention to international or the domestic news?

I prefer to pay more attention to international news rather than national news. Since people around me are very gossipy, I am already kept informed about the news here. There is a phrase that I hear often, "think globally and act locally." To mange my life in my town I need to know about the environment outside its borders. Who are the influential learders of the world and what are they doing? Their ideas about oil, energy or politics affect opportunities in my country. World events determine what my uncle pays for the gas in his car, the safety of the imported food my mom eats and my dad's decision to travel to a foreign country on next holiday. It can even affects my study. On a lighter one, my younger sister sort of likes to keep track of music trends. Well, I need to let her know, which is my responsibility as a big sister. Paying attention to global new helps us understand the bigger picture and how I fit into for both my study and leisure. What about you?
