On Thomas's blog, The Simmons File, I agree when he talks about how the story about a stolen pair of Air Jordan's were stolen is not newsworthy. The theft does not affect anyone but a few people, nor does it matter to people other than making them remember that their things can be stolen at anytime.
Now, if you look at WDRB now, the past, and most likely in the future too, they are very good at telling you all about thefts, and crime in general. This story is just another example on how WDRB takes local stories so far they aren't newsworthy, much less actually interesting, and that the only thing that their stories actually do is tell you where not to live, or to always be nervous. These things help nobody, so why keep doing it?
