Lacks depth in reporting, your having debate and say nothing about who are debating, so many times just not completely reporting.

If it's on the news or on the crawl I would like to read it sometime. All there is, is that bit of writing at the bottom and nothing else. Unless I want to know about other cities I don't like it that there's more news about everywhere else but not Alexandria/Pineville. All of the reporting about shootings, stabbings, or blowing up buildings puts ideas in already crazy people and glamorizes situations and everyone wants their 15 minutes or more of fame. Report on more good things in our area.
