Morning Bob ... yeah local news seems to be more local and not trying to jump into the deep end of political bias reporting.

Im sure some people will point out Sinclair broadcasting, which owns runs a lot of local news, has instructed their local news anchors with trump talking points for them to recite on air.

Sinclair Media Group, one of the largest local TV station owners, is reportedly requiring its anchors to read promotional messages on air that many are calling “pro-Trump propaganda.”

The script, which is required to be read during news time rather than using up commercial spots, includes anchors saying they’re “extremely proud of the quality, balanced journalism that [proper news brand name of local station] produces.” The anchors are then supposed to follow by saying, “But I’m [we are] concerned about the troubling trend of irresponsible, one-sided news stories plaguing our country.”

I try and read any "news" source from anyone, Fox to Al Jazeera to Jerusalem Post to reddit ... take it all with a huge grain of salt and decide for myself what I believe and dont believe.
