Trumpled (Alternative Leading)

The classic thing is simple dissemination of information in the US.  There's no unified voice disseminating news and information like the Australian newspaper, SBS or the ABC here, each US state is essentially its own separate mini-country. People don't give a flying .... what's happening in the adjacent state, and it isn't like their local news is going to give a wide enough view to encompass neighbouring states or the wider region.  Heck, people in one county hardly even acknowledge the presence of neighbouring counties.
