The news seems to have a hierarchy when it comes to what is important enough for the front page.
They mainly involve things that involve a serious crime against general morals of the public. For example, rape, murder, large theft, etc. Some crimes are relevant to who interprets them, but these are considered to be the worst by consensus.
After those, news that impacts a large group of people comes next, such as jobs and businesses. The recent announcement with Comerica Bank affects numerous people. People work for them, and several more use Comerica for banking purposes. When news can connect a large portion of the population to one issue, they tend to overexpose it as a way of connecting to that large crowd.
In specific local news, getting down to my township, most news would follow the norm, but since it doesn't occur as much, they focus on feats or accomplishments that may make the whole community glow. Dates and anniverseries that shine upon the fact of history, as if trying to build credibility for it's presence.
