I apologize ahead of time if i ' m just completely stupid . I hardly ever buy anything from Fry ' s . It says accepting back orders , but when i add to cart and try to check out , nothing works . Check out button is greyed out . No shipping available and no in store pickup . How do you make it work for a back order ? <| sep |> This one is a tough one to answer . I personally feel we should cover more small places , however if we do one we gotta do them all . Plus if we just cover one opening , it looks like a commercial . However when there ' s a trend of multiple places all following a certain style , it is notable enough to justify a story to my bosses . Having the big flashy American brand in there also helps to sell it , because us getting a new chain is a sign of our economic strength as a market . I can ' t speak for other news outlets , but I know our weekend morning team Kent Morrison and his producer Carly do make an effort to bring on local chefs from independent restaurants , instead of having chains on the show . Kent actually just walked by my desk and told me they try not to have chains on unless there ' s no other option . Having the little guys on often makes for good stories how did you get where you are ? give them a publicity boost , and introduces our viewers to new food plus it feeds our morning crew .
