Well, yes? People don't read The Boring News do they? "Today in The Boring News, a pencil manufacturer produced its 4 millionth pencil. It was yellow. Also, it rained yesterday."

You just described the local evening news. I wonder why anyone tunes in outside of being unable to find their remote to change the station.

The ratings are moving away from boring local TV news too. The audience is shrinking and moving to online sources. Local evening news is mainly controlled by the corporate owners, some news gets through but it's primarily a showcase for 3-4 stories from around larger markets.
