The availability of the internet obviously doesn't mean people are actively reading foreign sources. For nearly everybody, Americans will only see what CNN and Fox tells them, and Britons what BBC says, etc. And that coverage is often superficial or focused on an single event.

Well, this boils down to the interest of the individual. Some people have an incredible level of interest in what is going on in certain countries or with certain issues, so they actively will follow sources of information that informs them on those issues. Sort of like this site. You have people from all over the world who come here for information about the Flames. You have a thread where people come to discuss American politics, and for the most part, the people are pretty well informed. It all depends on interests and desire to know more on given topics.
