I think one is expected to understand the context oneself or else the first time one's spouse says "There aren't any eggs" one may receive a terrific fright at the thought of the impending doom of all sexual reproduction on the planet.

the 'context onself' is americans talking about america. got it.
The issue here is that the vast majority of American articles make no effort to convey the fact they are talking about America.
The internet is a _global_ space and there's very little effort required to make the distinction.
I would argue that the writers of these articles are the ones not understanding the "context of oneself" given how they think their readership is entirely American.

So now should every article written in the Atlanta Journal Constitution published on the internet mention that they are talking about Atlanta in the headline?
