News about the violence and instability in Iraq is not of great interest to Americans — but neither is the World Cup, except among millennials.
In a new Pew Research Center Poll, more Americans are following news about problems with care at veterans’ hospitals than instability and fighting in Iraq.

Hannity laughed and said he’s not too crazy about soccer either, it’s “kind of monotonous.” Well, except for the occasional biting.
