like you i have appreciated the local news coverage. they cover everything in a simple matter of fact fashion. here are the prices, they are up, here is a person being hurt by this. contrast with so many of the national outlets, many of which are owned by oligarchs, that might report on prices going up but always do so with a quote from the president that "prices are going down!!!!!!"
