The number of stations originating local news went up slightly (by two stations) this year, according to the latest installment of an RTDNA/Hofstra University study. A total of 1,026 stations run local news, with more planned for next year: the study finds “network affiliates are a lot more likely to expect the amount of news to increase in 2014 over 2013.”
