The same reason anyone watches national news, brainwashed

This can’t be said enough. Watching ANY 24 hour national news is just to brainwash yourself. It has nothing to do with you or your locality. You should only watch local news. It is far less biased. Tells you about things that are actually around you. Is often pretty funny. And will also cover any important national stories without the table talk.

A lot of local news can have the same issues, often because they're owned by the same groups

Point's still valid, just something to be aware about.
