Affiliate Marketing Secrets

I was watching my local news on TV last night. Sometimes they read complaints from viewers. One viewer wrote that he was upset because the channel is reporting too much about murders and robberies in our area. He said that the news channel must have some sort of agenda for reporting these crimes and showing pictures of the people who are arrested. What sort of agenda could he be talking about? Is he mad because most of the suspects are minorities? There was one crime where the suspect was white, and they showed his picture just like all the others.
By the way, the news channel is my local Fox affiliate.

Moments ago, I have thought that I would run a broadcast network studio that would run the whole schedule throughout each day and every week, but on last Sunday, I have borrowed a book called “This Business of Television”, I read that “TV networks do not, however, control the entire day’s schedule, instead, they typically run half the day, the rest is programmed by affiliates with local news and syndicated programming”. Then I have thought of something else, I was wondering what would happen if a broadcast network would run the entire day’s schedule?
