Who watches or reads local news? I haven't watched for years. Close to two decades. My guess is specific demographics. It’s selection bias.

How do you figure out what’s going on around you then? Word of mouth (online or otherwise)?

    For me word of mouth I suppose. If I don't hear about it from somebody else, it probably wasn't worth knowing.

    I think all this "news" people read/watch is mostly useless filler. I don't miss any of it.

    I use local newspaper articles online and Reddit, but I mostly don't figure out what's going on around me. :D
