WDRB - Doc's Cantina

The WDRB news team clearly has no better stories. They are using this sad excuse for a story to fill space and time on the website and television. Opening up a new cantina DOES NOT affect the average persons daily life. They are just trying to make the interesting important and once again not the important interesting. There are wars, political debates, social issues, people escaping to reach asylum all around the world, yet WDRB decided to talk about Doc's Cantina having a delayed opening. 

Hello!!!! WDRB news, there are things going on in the world. You should attempt to make the important interesting. You should not try to make the interesting important. Sure, it's great that people are opening a new business, but, it only affects a few people for a short amount of time. What is actually important, affects people for a period of time, and not just a set group. It will affect many, many, many people. A local restaurant opening doesn't affect a large amount and only is valid to be new for a few weeks. This story was not following the Ten Elements of Journalism which should've been used on a better story.
