It occurred to me while reading about UFO whistleblower news. Why do the majority of UFO things occur in the United States rather than Russia, China, and other countries?

Edit: Thank you all for answers, they’re really helpful.

    There’s also the fact that mainstream news in most countries consist of 50% local and 50% US news.

        Maybe I’m misunderstanding, but I’m talking from experience watching European tv news, especially during the election cycle.

            I mean the 2 year drum up to elections so that even my nan who doesn’t speak a word of English knows all of the candidates. US is also on the front of the culture wars as well as popular entertainment, so there’s a lot of that as well. Anyway, I’m sharing my personal experience and don’t feel like there’s a need to argue about that, if your local TV presents you a balanced world view great for you.
