post news that may not be on TV or radio or in the papers yet

Very true. Many news posts on FR never make the media news, but are significant. For example, the Yonkers, NY, "chemical food poisoning" of last evening has not been mentioned on any TV news outlets in my area, including the morning Networks.

Several Quarantined in Yonkers

Toxic food fells 6 in Yonkers

They don't know what it is, but 2 medical personnel have been hospitalized after coming into contact with bodily fluids from the victims. One developed a rash, the other - skin lesions. Also, the victims were found unconcious and had a yellow substance coming from their mouth and eyes. Evidently they got sick after just a few bites of food. Also, the police are treating it as a crime, and nearby residents are still at a Red Cross shelter set up at a church (so evidently, they can't get back into their homes).
