After watching the news about FOX and NBC and their fabricating (lie) story announcers, it is interesting to also in the same hand look at the question; Who in Muscatine reports the news? Is the answer no one?
Picking on just the law enforcement industry alone proves the local newspaper or radio station seeks or announces the news and happenings. The "local" TV stations only reports negative things about Muscatine, and rarely.
Maybe there should be a local news web page that covers Muscatine? Sure would kill the gossip and remember it's up to you to determine the future.
