There are many different types of news you can watch on television. There is local news, sports news, TV news mangement and many other. Television has gone a long way with better equipment to film and shoot this type of journalism.
This morning I was watching Fox 29 news which is a local news station in the area. This television news station provides interviews from people on events that have recently happened in the area. Also they provide world news, weather, traffic and entertainment news. This type of television news is for people that are going to work early and want to catch up on the news around the area and world.
In local news you really get to know the reporters since you see them every morning. This is a good thing since you are comfortable with them and they prove that they are excellent reporters. But sometimes they can get to comfortable and start spilling out opinion which can alter the story. This morning they were covering the story of Serena Williams because she was fined $2,000 for grunting during the game. The news anchor man, John Favole made a remark, "well it looks like she should follow the rules." This is just one example of the many opinions that are thrown into the television news that some people dont even notice that could change the whole story.
The most important aspect of local news is getting the facts covered and being effective. Fox 29 did a great job covering the major stories locally and around the world. They gave weather and traffic for the people that had to get to work and made sure they were also informed. This is why Fox 29 is the place to gets news that effective in informing you so you get facts from the story and not just opinions.
