The Crumbling of Local News

Allen Media scooped up television stations across the country like it was a Monopoly game. Let’s buy them to say we own them - but let’s not put any money into it. They sent shockwaves across the country when they announced there would be no more local weather at many of their stations. Including a station in Iowa where Amanda and Tara both worked. With a combined 40-years working in TV, these veteran journalists have a few things to say about what they have called out all along: the man behind the curtain runs it all. The rest is just a puppet show.
