Things don't really get much coverage unless they have a direct political effect here, is the sad truth. So that means we get news from Europe, the Americas / Australasia (less than America though), and the Middle East.

We get a bit from China as their economic position now means things there have a global knock-on.

Absolutely **** all from the rest of Asia, or Africa, unless it happens to involve the UK or US directly (e.g. we're suddenly VERY interested in West Africa whenever the word "Ebola" creeps up). In media terms, half of the world might as well not exist.
