True, but/and let’s consider something like a more conservative outlet (relative to NYT) in 2023. Who’s president? What issues are getting talked up pre-election? I’m guessing we’ll see something like drugs and homicide taking a massive chunk of the news relative to what the NYT reported. Even regional news will differ — ever turn on the daytime news in Las Vegas? It’s all car chases and interviews with shooting witnesses. You’d think nothing else happened in the world. Just an interesting experiment.

Oh Yeah, to that, definitely. I always get a chuckle out of the Fox TV stations across the country that will have local horror stories.. Sometimes absolutely lurid in detail.

The reporting vogue seems to be Families Gone Bad in the Upper Midwest..
