From the New York Times:
KRTV News in Great Falls, Mont., has exactly one full-time reporter, Kay Rossi, on the Monday-to-Friday local news beat. So when Ms. Rossi called in stranded — snowbound with family in Connecticut, uncertain when she would be able to get back West — the tiny station’s managers were thrown into a staffing crisis. Then they improvised: They made her plight a news story.
We enjoyed this story not only because of the Connecticut connection but because it was written by reporter Kirk Johnson who spent a few years covering Connecticut for the New York Times.
