Still the Main Source Response

Since I work at a small local television station, WVUA-TV, it is really unsurprising to me that local television is so important to people in their community. It is true that people who do not follow much national and international news are more concerned with the road closings and city board meeting agenda than the latest on Britney Spears or the 2008 election. Local television is also very important because my station is the only television source for West Alabama news. If you want to know what President Bush has planned for the day or the latest death toll in Iraq you can turn on CNN for five seconds to find out. However, if you want to sit down for 30 minutes to an hour to hear about what’s going on in your community, local news, weather and sports, tune in to your local television station.
