Did Channel 5 in Fort Smith Drop Ball OR Make Right Decision?

This from a TV viewer in Fort Smith: Channel 5 in Fort Smith, showed tonight how they're becoming a NWA station too. Their first two news stories had to do with trials in NWA.

197 of the Barracks at Fort Chaffee burned to the ground in a massive fire fueled by the high winds. Channel 5 made it their 4th story of the night. Channel 40 it was the lead story and they had team coverage on it.

I think the 5 news director really dropped the ball on what was really the lead story or they were just going to lead with NWA news.
