WLKY Lacking Presidential Election News

Every time I turn on the television to watch the 5:30 P.M. news, I expect to see at least one headline about the upcoming presidential election, but I see none. For the last month, WLKY has reported 1 or 2 stories about the election that holds our country's fate, which seems very important to the citizens of the United States but not important enough to report on. I recently checked the website for any news on the election and I found a total of 2 stories. In the politics section of the website you would think that the whole section is filled with stories about both democratic and republican debates, but there was only one to be found. WLKY has violated the watchdog yardstick of journalism because they simply are not giving people information about critical news stories involving keeping an eye on people with power, such as politicians.
