To be honest, the only time I ever watched NWCN was when I was waiting in the lobby of Les Schwab to get my tires worked on. Apparently the now defunct news channel was de jour along with the free beef and complimentary popcorn.
As I have repeated numerous times, for a news outlet to remain viable they must provide content that you cannot get anywhere else. And sadly NWCN didn't provide anything different than what you could get on KING 5 or any of the other local channels.
