The Minnesota State Fair has wound down, but the 2022 affair made quite a mark. The Great Minnesota Get-Together goes for 12 days, ending on Sept. 5, and a stunning 1.84 million people turned up for it — 540,000 more than 2021. The Twin Cities TV stations were there too, setting up their news operations at the fair, as attendees grab a corn dog and take a seat in the bleachers to watch.

Exclusives
KSTP Minneapolis is betting is that in-depth and investigative reporting, longer stories and interviews, and a focus on issues with broad community impact rather than just the latest “breaking news” will appeal to viewers who already know the day’s headlines and want more substance. Perhaps it will even attract new ones who may have given up on local TV news altogether.
Don’t underestimate the appeal to viewers of getting to know their favorite TV personalities in a more intimate way.
