The reporter's occupation, and indeed the station's, is to sell news. So when there isn't any, they try to make some up. Same thing happens even on a national level; when not much is really going on, you see ridiculous sensationalized stories.

They are mountain sellers who, short on mountains, are trying to sell you a molehill.

That my friend is one of the better descriptions of the new media on all levels I've read in a long time.
The molehill analogy is right on the mark.
It's sad how many people actually buy these molehills especially come election time. They can twist things around into unrecognizable shapes for sure.

it's rather redundant to use the words "reporter" and "moron" in the same phrase.... they are interchangeable.

Journalism schools have not turned out a true journalist in decades. They only turn out reporters. To knowledgeable folks there is a world of difference.

Oh, I have to disagree. Sorry I have to embarrass you here but maybe you missed the awesome journalistic epicness where he did this: (you can PM me your private apology)
