    If you had to choose between either only getting local TV stations or local radio stations, which would you choose? Please include why and your age. I have a theory I'd like to test. For me, Radio. I enjoy listening to music more than I do watching the BS on TV anymore.

    TV. Radio has just as many commercials as TV. Plus, they play the same songs repeatedly.

    Radio. Duluth news sucks and isn't even "local" for us. plus I can listen to the radio while working. Not so with the TV.

    WELY is an awesome station :tu:

    Plus I work at the local newspaper, no need for local tv stations.

    I'd choose Radio. TV is getting more and more boring by the day...
    I'm 67.

    Local TV sucks. I'm not much of a TV person unless its hunting and fishing shows anyway though.

    For me it's Radio. I spend 2+ hours a day in a car also so that's what in use to.

    I'm 34.

    My only choices are LOCAL Radio or LOCAL TV. God, I think I'd slit my wrist. At this point I'd just not take either. OK OK.... so I''d take the radio. I can listen to it while in my truck driving to the next metro area to get a real radio station. LOL
