There's so much emotion in your response that I'm lothe to reply, but at the very least, did you honestly expect them to have to hash out the whole history of the region every time they're on air?

At some point I think it's okay to assume that people know the basics of what happened before, and that they're discussing the latest events that are going on.

to briefly outline the full picture would take five minutes, maybe ten. just an yes, it’s perfectly realistic. i’d say most of the viewers have only a hazy idea of the origins, if that.theres no reason to skip a brief history of this. zero.

Their segment on the show is ten minutes already, without the exposition that you want. You're not being realistic.
