I would imagine only the stuff that's directly related to foreign policy does, really. Don't think we're all too fussed about the standard guns, abortion and economy stuff that dominates our "what's the USA up to today?" segments in our news.

I do think some aspects of our media have tried to mirror America's though so the line is blurred. Our morning news programs in particular are almost carbon copies and seem to devote a lot of time to Hollywood, but the ins and outs of the senate and house of representatives would confuse 99% of us over here.
