Local news doesn't pay. I have a close friend who is very popular on a local station and you'd be shocked at how little they make.

Providence is 52nd in the news market where as Boston is #10 which equates to nearly 10-20K difference in salary depending on station and the anchors experience.

A lot aren't. And that with a college education and years of experience. The stations make tons of money and don't pay. So of course people leave and go for a better oppotunity.
