Aaawriiiight! This is something nice to see...... a Good News report in Breaking News, my first stop at FR each day.

I guess the reporters can't be bothered to leave their hotel rooms to check out the progress being made around the country, huh? At best, they'll make a quick mention in generalized terms of the progress but that's about it.
