Conflicted feels: thanks for answering my question but ... come on, Jake! This is a politician's answer to an honest question. I frequently tune in to CNN for work at home in the States and abroad (including Beirut). The content differential is staggering between CNN US and the rest of the world (in my experience Beirut, East Asia and South America). I understand the networks need to tailor to a distinct audience but it's disingenuous to suggest that the difference between CNN in Lebanon, PA and Lebanon is the same as CNN in Beirut or, say, Moscow, Tokyo, London, etc. Is there any concern at CNN US that the domestic audience is being insulated from a global perspective or vice versa? Thanks! Sincerely, a fan who can't watch your show abroad for work and also has trouble explaining to foreign clients why US news can't be exported, except the NY Times, WSJ and Herald Tribune anymore.

Hi Jake! How come CNN US and CNN International have such different programming? Is it inherent cynicism about what US audiences will watch, America's inability to export its reporting or something else?
