The biggest listening post in my family are my mom and grandmother. My mom and her mother, Grandma Lane, are constantly on the phone rambling about local news and gossip. Grandma Lane even has a police scanner in her living room of which she religiously listens. She’s had it for as long as I can remember. Going to Grandma Lane's was akin to watching the news! My sisters and I called them the Corning News Station. They always seemed to know more than anyone should about everyone else!
In my hometown of Corning, Arkansas, I had more social outlets to discuss news. I used to work in a grocery store. I can't even begin to describe the amount of gossip I heard every day. I was a cashier for my first three years, so I was well informed! Then, I worked in the back as a produce worker. The gossip was still adamant!
