Today, for only the third time in our country’s history, the President of the United States will be impeached.

That is a HUGE story.

Yet it is a story that cable news has obsessed on and tried to spin their direction and local news has basically ignored.

In fact, I am willing to bet that if you asked most local TV Reporters why President Trump is being impeached, they could not answer the question.

Because local news has barely covered the story, viewers tune to cable news and that is like putting down the Washington Post and picking up the National Enquirer.

If you tune to Fox News, you learn that the impeachment of Trump is a witch hunt. Turn on CNN and MSNBC and you think Trump should be impeached for just about everything he has done since taking office.

Local news needs to give viewers the correct information and they need to cover the story.

The President of the United States is getting impeached. If this doesn’t lead every local newscast, there is something seriously wrong.

I spoke to a News Director yesterday that told me that “viewers don’t care,” and that his station would just touch on the story.

It’s your job to make viewers care and it is your job to inform viewers why they should care.

Come on guys!

Be Better!!
