Somehow it has become a national convention that locals news should consist of news, weather and sports. There's time for chit chat, but no time for the arts. There's time for weather quizzes and
endless maps, but no time for the arts. There's time for pet stories, but no time for the arts. There's time to interview a high school quarterback, but no time for the arts.
As a consequence, the public never expects artists to be more than entertainers--certainly never experts or serious commentators on culture.
