Not exactly a "broadcast" radio story and certainly not local, but I found the 4 minute-plus video that accompanies this TV newsroom piece kind of interesting. It's a flashback to an era before satellites and the Internet that's now long gone - although I have to admit that teletype machine sure brings back memories.
