Really, they dont have beat reporters as far as i can tell. They seem to have bots pick things up off the net.

Unless its something really juicy that all the major media would cover anyway, its not really local coverage.

Its ai generated, or it might as well be. The days of mike barnackle (sp?) Are long gone.
