If it bleeds, it leads.
That’s an old saying about local news; taking shots at news directors who put stories like car crashes, shootings, and other general mayhem at the top of their newscasts.
However, news about crime and public safety is some of the most read, most shared, and consistently highest-ranking content on PotomacLocal.com.
Information about new arrests, scam artists trying to rip off residents, and details about why the police were on your street last night always does well on our local news site.
More than 50,000 unique readers in Prince William, Manassas, and Stafford consume this content on a daily basis. After seeing their friends and family member’s arrest photo on our site, finding a good lawyer becomes one of the first things on their to-do list.
