None of Seattle's local TV news stations have acknowledged it at all, but Seattle has the worst local news of any major U.S. cityhttps://twitter.com/mipo777/status/1028126041129345024 …

I feel like local citizens have a right to know there is a rogue airplane flying above them! (you can confirm what's going on by listening to ATC feeds)
-
I don't think any newsroom would consider the ATC feeds "confirmed" info. Whether they SHOULD or not, is a separate convo. But I don't think they would... A lot of this is about sharing "raw" info versus officially confirmed info, right?
-
ATC is a lot different than regular scanner traffic, IMO.
-
Yes, but do you see local news typically quoting off the ATC feed?
-
"Numerous witnesses report X happening; airport radio audio appears to confirm an incident" are factual statements
-
Agreed, especially re: witnesses

No excuse. I’ve been listening to the dude on ATC frequencies. It is very reportable
