depends. if u mean ur local foreign newspaper its for obviously for that community. lets say its chinese then its for the chinese community where ever u live. the difference for a start is that its in their language, it biases them, advertisment are chinese e.g chinese shop owners in ur country and it also has a bit of news about whats happening in their home country as well as a bit of the news for the country r u living in now.
hope this helps.
