Media Critique: WHAS Comes Short on Stories

WHAS's number of stories per episode average makes very little sense. Though you can obviously fit more articles on a webpage than in a thirty minute show, shouldn't you be able to get all of the major stories from the television show alone? All of the other stations, though there aren't the same number of stories on both the webpage and the the television episode, there id never a distance larger than eleven stories but in WHAS's case there is a gap of about thirty-eight stories. You might point out that the news-crew over at WHAS puts out too many stories on their website but there is also, on average, about eight more stories meaning it doesn't meaning WHAS doesn't keep the general public as up to date as it should. To see all the data, look at the chart below.

This chart displays how many stories each of the news-stations in Louisville
KY had over a several-week period on average. Note the large difference
 between the data on WHAS and on all of the other stations
