This article is confusing at is uses the terms “vacancy rates” and “empty homes” the wording is very murky if they are attempting to compare rental versus home ownership. Even AI doesn’t usually write like this.
They do mention vacation homes. But the way they throw around all of these various terms is confusing and sloppy.
I was legit curious about this article, but even with them including actual data, it’s still not clear or easy to draw any conclusions.
it is faux new for LA, what do you expect journalism here?
they are muddying water on purpose as fake news generally do.
I assume this is a local Fox affiliate which is usually not the same as Fox News.
you aint wrong but how is this distinction relevant here?
does not fox la push the same owner narrative as the national cable channel?
The Fox affiliate in The SF Bay Area (KTVU 2) certainly does not push the same narrative as the cable channel Fox News. I assume that will be true for many other metro areas (like Los Angeles) where a large percentage of the voters are not conservative. If they did this, nobody would watch their local news, and possibly not watch the channel in general, which would make it not profitable to sell ads.
my understanding is that these local channels still do the owner's bidding they just do it in a way that local population will accept. there is a reason why murdoch owns different outlets. it is way more effective to segment the plebs and shill to them as subgroup.
politcal campaigns are known to do the same... where ads change based on the location and will conflict. example last elections ads in MI and PA re israel
