Thanks for the clarification, but I was also comparing like with like: UK 24/7 cable news is strictly regulated, as per my comment.
Local news is less of a need in the UK (the entire country is half the size of California), and breaks down into two categories: BBC local news which is comprehensive, and basically every region is well covered with TV and radio journalism; and, private sector which is a license requirement for ITV (the main commercial broadcaster), and a dying small newspaper trade.
We don't however have anything like Sinclair which is something to be grateful for.
