More people are starting to trust local news again, just look at the chart. Trust in national news is still low, but local news is making a comeback. This means there’s a big chance for everyday creators to step in and make a real impact. If you’re someone who cares about your town or city, you can share local stories, highlight events, talk about what’s happening, and build trust with your audience. People are hungry for honest, real news from voices they actually believe. You don’t need to work for a big network. Your phone, your voice, and your care for the community might be all it takes. The door is wide open for local news creators—and the timing couldn’t be better.
