Weekly Assignment 2

Local News

I watched a news station I normally don't for this assignment.

KOKH Fox 25
Prime Time News at 9
June 12 at 9 p.m.

The station is owned by Sinclair Broadcast Group

The two Main News Anchors are Andrew Speno and Jaime Cerreta
They are both Caucasian and they are a mixed gender team
The news covered the cities of Oklahoma City, Weleeka, and Del City

One thing I noticed was there really wasn't any diversity on the news. Almost everyone they interviewed was a Caucasian male. The only person I saw of color was a man in the capital building.
