As a westerner, I've discovered that we forget that we are less than 20% of the global population. Bringing that up in conversation can surprise people.
What percent of the global economy? What percent of industry/invention? What percent of entertainment? What percent of military?
Edit: No one wants to address military
No, our media is fucked.
UK media is obsessed with random news from USA, if Sarah Palin says something dumb it will be all over the papers, but if poland gets a new president it might not even be mentioned. In the past year my local news has never printed the name of my local MP but has printed maybe 100 of donald trump's tweets.
The UK and Canadian media seems to be obsessed with US politics, yet here we barely talk about either countries. Why is that so?
From my personal experience living abroad, we westerners highly overestimate the consumption of our entertainment (movies/shows/music/games) in the non-western world. E.g. log into your favorite western online game in Japan and see what players you end up playing with. Hint: It's basically noone Japanese.
Regarding economy: based on the wikipedia data available here [1] USA+EU+Australia (with GB i think still included in EU there) makes up less than 50% of the global economy, tendency downwards.
Virtually every smaller country in Europe and Latin America consume American media voraciously.
I really wouldn’t consider Latin America to be in the West either.
Generally the dividing line between West and East is the Ural mountains.
