AIR CHECK BY DIANA MARSZALEK
A Quick Trip Around The World Of Local News
Among stories of interest to the local journalism community are the ratings gains in Washington, D.C., during the government shutdown; the decline in local news viewing overall; a new morning show at previously newsless KCWI Des Moines, Iowa; a new company called ProPixTV that is selling feature stories to stations; and a tip of the old rabbit ears to KARE Minneapolis’ Brad Huppert who just won his ninth and 10th Edward R. Murrow Awards.
