Using Social Media for Local News

It seems to me that most social media coverage of politics and current events has a national and international focus. Instead, it should be better used for coverage of local and community news. For example, see the posts below that I shared on Facebook and Twitter tonight (9/19/16).

How soon will you read about this in the local news? Probably not until this coming Thursday (9/22/16) in the Troy Times. You sure won't see it on TV or read about it in one of the major daily newspapers.
