The city I live in is going to be featured on one of those t.v. news magazine shows soon -- for the second time in not too many (5 or 6) years. Missing persons/murder and disappearance.
A couple of months ago, there was an article in one of the weekly "news" rags which took place here (the location was mis-identified in the rag, but I don't know if that is their regular practice or an error...). Dead attempted rapist.
Possibly there have been good things mentioned in national media, too, but I missed them.
Three national media events in 5 or 6 years in the same (not major) city seems like a lot to me, so I thought I'd ask:
Have events your town or (not major) city been mentioned in national media?

Answered Yes -- ONE time that I know of
This time last year, Newcastle was ravaged by horrendous storms and flooding, which resulted in a big coal tanker being washed up on the main beach in town. Just reading the stories in the local paper over the last few days, it actually made international headlines.

I live some of the year in Cherry Hill, NJ which is a Nice, Suburban Community but several years ago, around the corner from me we had the Rabbi Neuland Murder of his wife, it was on Court TV and living so close was of great interest. He was guilty and serving Life!
Last year several Terrorists were arrested in a plot to attack Fort Dix, they made the mistake of filming themselves at a target range and getting it developed, A young man I think at Best Buy saw the film and turned them in. Think they're still in the courts

I don't consider Tucson a "Big or Major" city, but we end up in the news usually about once a year. Mostly for either flooding or Illegal immigrant issues, but we used to be a mafia "retirement" town & we've been featured on 48 Hrs & Dateline for a few murders. We also had a wild cross town chase this week that ended up with 3 police officers shot, one fatally, which sometimes gets mentioned on national news.
Its pretty weird, isn't it? -
