Local TV news used to be the trusted place where communities got the facts. But today, something’s changed—and not always for the better. In this episode, I sit down with veteran anchor Elex Michaelson, who pulls back the curtain on the dramatic shifts inside America’s local newsrooms.

What’s driving the changes? From corporate takeovers and cookie-cutter scripts to the loss of investigative grit, Michaelson exposes how profit motives and political agendas have transformed local stations from watchdogs into watered-down infotainment. Viewers are noticing—and tuning out.

We’ll break down the biggest shifts, why they matter, and how the decline of local TV news leaves a dangerous vacuum in our communities. This is a candid, eye-opening conversation you won’t want to miss.
