A story worthy of international attention

The BBC, Britain's own beloved news agency, has brought to the attention of its global audience this important story.  A state lawmaker in Arizona was caught speeding.  He even admitted he often speeds while driving.  The Fraternal Order of Police has, as a result, revoked its endorsement of him.

I know.  How does a state lawmaker in Arizona getting pulled over by police for speeding warrant a story in Britain's primary news outlet?  Why would people in England, or anywhere else in the world with access to the BBC, care that a state lawmaker in Arizona got a speeding ticket?  Why out of all of the stories coming out of the US and Canada did it see fit to mention this one?

Did I mention the lawmaker is a Republican?  Nuff said.  Next silly question.
