It could be that US domestic politics, especially at the federal level, takes too much 'context' and 'definitions' to explain individual news items properly.
Like for example, how would one try to convey a news story about Al Gore's speech to a foreign audience? It's not really relevent outside of US domestic politics and it would take far more time to explain, than report.
If you notice, none of those news items really need context or even a basic understanding of how America or its political system works.
The Media deals in superficiality all the time with it's information products
