local news
Neighborhood current events
Local news is journalism covering events in a specific geographic area—a city, town, or region.
It typically includes crime reports, school board meetings, municipal politics, and community events.
Local news appears in newspapers, TV broadcasts, and increasingly online outlets: Did you see the story about the new library on the local news?
The term often contrasts with national or international coverage.
