Why is it called the BBC World Service when it's mostly about Donald Trump?
Post Body

I like the BBC world service when it's about places I don't hear about. There's so much world out there. So many amazing stories.

It's so disappointing to hear American politics take up such a huge chunk of the air time. And Donald Trump gets most of that chunk. There's already so much information about Trump, it's so easy to find online, there are many comedy shows for example that almost entirely report on Trump.

It seems incredibly lazy for the BBC to devote so much time to something that is so uninteresting and prozaic. I'm sure I'm not the only listener who wants stories from ALL OVER the world. Not just one bit that already gets saturation coverage on other media platforms etc.

Am I the only one?
