Think about your local News/Talk radio station. (not your "All News" station if there is one)

How many full time employees do they have in their news department to cover local and regional news stories?

Choose all that apply
There is one news person in mornings, another in evenings
There are more than 2 full time news people
One person does it part time
The news person does nothing but paraphrase newspaper headlines
There is one person that does it, covering all 24 hrs/day
Haha... What fantasy land are you living in?
Ummm..... None.
During a breaking news story, the secretary becomes a reporter on her cell phone
News reporters are a luxury stations can't afford any more
There is one person in the "cluster" that does news for all stations
The person who does local news calls it in remotely from another city
I don't listen to radio news - I read the local papers
One person reads the news on air for the hearing impaired
The station cancelled their newspaper subscriptions
News is done by someone at a local TV station
