On this West Virginia Morning, more than 1,600 counties in the U.S. are so-called news deserts – places with limited options for local news. Most of West Virginia’s 55 counties fall into that category. In this encore episode of Us & Them, host Trey Kay visits one online startup in Greenbrier County that’s bucking the trend. Kay talks with pastor and former lawmaker Stephen Baldwin about his venture called The Real West Virginia. Here’s an excerpt.
Also, there’s been a lot of discussion about West Virginia’s school funding formula. Now lawmakers have a price tag for fixing it.
And, seven groups in the state are getting Rural Health Transformation Program awards to strengthen diabetes care.
