I believe we both get to know more about international news and have a better understanding of what is happening. Means of communication have improved a lot compared to what they used to be, and we have never been as eager to share or watch news as today.
Development of mass printing technologies and the invention of newspaper has already been a choice of cheap and instant news for over a century. Modern telecommunication system made radio, TV and the Internet possible, which delivers news with almost no delay, no matter how far away it took place. On the other hand, if not fulfilled by paper and screen, one could always take a trip to where it happened if time permits. Thanks to advanced methods of transportation nowadays, jets and high-speed railways have made such an option viable.
News providers are motivated by globalization and international tourism. Countries establish state-owned or semi-public news agencies to share local news and help boost tourism among foreigners, or post views on various issues to gaining advantage during diplomatical disputes by attracting viewers from other countries and getting them more familiar with the country, thus more likely to stand on the same side. Companies find setting up private press departments more and more lucrative since it helps with promoting overseas sales of their goods and services and downplaying PR issues after an incident.
Besides changes on delivery and production of news, readers have evolved as well. Thanks to the general availability of public education, most of the time we already have some basic knowledge on the historical and political background of an area before hearing about a piece of news happening there. More importantly, the global market puts pressure on investors and people with jobs linked to a certain field to put effort in grasping latest news about it, whether domestic or international, in order to keep up and survive instead of getting outdated and falling behind.

---------------------
Better to have 5 paragraphs with 3 arguments. And try always support/against one side but compare two sides, like this:
para 1: introduction
para 2: reason 1. address both of the views presented for reason 1
para 3: reason 2. address both of the views presented for reason 2
para 4: reason 3. address both of the views presented for reason 3
para 5: conclusion.
So how to find out those reasons. There is a formula:
reasons == advantages or
reasons == disadvantages
for example, we can always apply 'save time', 'save/make money', 'find a job', 'make friends', 'get more information' as reasons to all essay/speaking topics.
or we can apply 'waste time', 'waste money', 'no job', 'make bad friends', 'get bad information' as reasons to all essay/speaking topics.
