I know, I know.  It’s the internet era.  There is really no reason for you spend time watching and waiting by your TV set for the news to come on when you can get anything you want at the click of a button instantly.  But let’s be honest, is it really the same?

I’m not talking about the national news that gets plastered everywhere.  If the President does something, I am sure I will hear about it.  I’m talking about your local news.  You know what I’m talking about.  That small station that puts the heart warming piece about someone that did something fantastic in your local community.  That’s what people don’t get enough of.

It’s good to have a sense of what’s going on in your community.  Small town stations don’t have the resources to always get all of their clips and stories online regularly.  The simple solution is to sit back and what the news on TV.

If that reason is not good enough, there is always the local eye candy.  My friend Ken over at tuccioholic.com recently posted about “The Immensely Awesome” Megan Glaros, a local weather reporter.  That’s good enough of a reason to watch for me.
