Tonight I was watching local news on multiple stations, KHON, KITV, and KGMB, as usual flipping through the channels. Did I missed all the local news? All of the news they talked about were not local at all: a car accident in Philadelphia, whales in California, recycling in Japan, some guy who paints with ketchup and french fries… (Wow, I said….sarcastically…)
I watch the local news to get the LOCAL NEWS, not to find out what is going on around the world. I have much better alternative sources for the world news. Okay, the whole news programs are about 35 minutes of which 5 minutes are for sports news. Taking off about 10-12 minutes for commercials, they are left with 18-20 minutes of news time. Do we really not have enough local news to fill up 20 minutes?
Maybe no news is a good news… Hey, what was the huge smoke that I saw today around Waikele……?

I agree. News these days are as exciting as the weather report…87 high and 70s low…everyday.
